Der KamikaZEN :dustbunny:Good morning, Fediverse! As you might have noticed, day 37 was missing in action. As Murphy’s law would have it, G came down with the flu and I spent the day (precariously) juggling the designer/housekeeper/nurse hats. Fortunately she’s feeling better today, so I was able to take some time for a 45min base run early in the morning, and to admire my neighbor’s roses, on day 38 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a> 😅<a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Running</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Runner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Runner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/ZenRunner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZenRunner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Kamikazens100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kamikazens100DayProject</a>

Day 36 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a> was an 11.6k run, first step towards sustainable distance buildup.

Der KamikaZEN :dustbunny:Good afternoon, Fediverse. Day 34 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a> has mostly been spent reading and doodling at waiting rooms due to some family medical things. I was still hoping to squeeze in a pre-dinner Pilates session, but G just reminded me we have to go grocery shopping, so that's most likely scrubbed too. Walking around the supermarket does at least count as a bit of exercise, right? RIGHT? 😅<a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Running</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Runner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Runner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/ZenRunner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZenRunner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Kamikazens100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kamikazens100DayProject</a>

Der KamikaZEN :dustbunny:Hello and welcome to day 33 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a>, Fediverse! Today I visited the track after a long time, it was pretty refreshing. Speed intervals, 10 minutes warmup, 5x2min with 2min easy jog recovery, 10 min cooldown. Felt stronger than I expected, so I dare say the 21k training plan is going well so far 🤘🏻😉👍🏻<a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Running</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Runner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Runner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/ZenRunner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZenRunner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Kamikazens100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kamikazens100DayProject</a>

Der KamikaZEN :dustbunny:Days 30 and 31 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a> ended up a little mashed together (I’m seeing a pattern here 😅). With a late Monday pre-dinner Pilates session, and an early morning 40 minute base run. The base phase of my training plan is over, on to four weeks of build phase ✊🏻Wish me luck 😉<a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Running</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Runner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Runner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/ZenRunner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZenRunner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Kamikazens100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kamikazens100DayProject</a>

Der KamikaZEN :dustbunny:Good morning, Fediverse! After being indirectly reminded by a good <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/FediFriend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FediFriend</a> about the importance of self-compassion, I took a day off to rest as recharge. So I’m skipping day 28 and going straight into day 29 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a>, with a 60 minute long run which went much better than I expected after an upset stomach week. Guess I’m in better shape than I thought 😅I also caught a peeping squirrel during my post-workout stretches 🐿️<a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Running</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Runner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Runner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/ZenRunner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZenRunner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Kamikazens100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kamikazens100DayProject</a>

Der KamikaZEN :dustbunny:Yesterday was day 27 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a>, and it was a bit of a blur, courtesy of work.

Day 26 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a> was a little better than yesterday. Tummy is still a bit unsettled, but at least I felt well enough this morning to gear up and go running. 35 minute tempo run. 10 minute warmup at a comfortable pace, 15 minutes at tempo pace, and 10 minutes cooldown. Not bad for not feeling my best 🙂<a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Running</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Runner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Runner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/ZenRunner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZenRunner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Kamikazens100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kamikazens100DayProject</a>

Today is day 25 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a>, and it wasn’t a stellar one. Something I ate didn’t set well and I’ve been running low on energy all day.

Der KamikaZEN :dustbunny:And now, time to report on day 24 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a>. After the long weekend in Mexico (Monday was a bank holiday), we’re back to our usual programming. This Monday-flavored Tuesday began with a 35 minute base run, followed by a good breakfast and a stiff dose of caffeine and carbs, to jumpstart a short week. I think my body is starting to suspect where this is going, but it’s too late now, too late. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! 😈<a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Running</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Runner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Runner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/ZenRunner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZenRunner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Kamikazens100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kamikazens100DayProject</a>

Day 23 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a> was not MIA, it just went unreported because of the long weekend mood. It was not extra active, but it did start with some light morning yoga, continued with a nice walk around Mexico’s National Center for the Arts, and ended with a bit of lower body Pilates. Come to think about it, it actually was pretty active 😅<a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Running</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Runner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Runner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/ZenRunner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZenRunner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Kamikazens100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kamikazens100DayProject</a>

Welcome to day 22 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a>. A 50 minute run, with a little push in pace to start putting some pressure on the legs. From here on, time to start gradually building up distance and endurance. Of course, all that effort deserves a little reward 🍺😜🤘🏻<a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Running</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Runner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Runner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/ZenRunner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZenRunner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Kamikazens100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kamikazens100DayProject</a>

Day 21 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a> was, unconventional. It consisted of long walks to and from the market, plus house cleaning, which were enough to reach my move, exercise, and calorie burn goals.

This is day 20 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a>. One more week left on the “base phase” of my 21k training program, time to sit down and start working on the “build phase”. It’s always a bit scary when you have to start dialing the training stress up a bit, I’m never quite sure how to fine-tune the balance to stay within the “sweet spot” between under and over training. 😅<a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Running</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Runner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Runner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/ZenRunner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZenRunner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Kamikazens100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kamikazens100DayProject</a>

Der KamikaZEN :dustbunny:Had to skip day 18 because life, or the other side of it, got in the way. Spent the day at a friend's dad funeral 😞 But, life has to go on for those of us who are still here. So here's day 19 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a>, with a short but intense speed interval training to start developing strength and stamina for that 21k race. <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Running</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Runner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Runner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/ZenRunner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZenRunner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Kamikazens100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kamikazens100DayProject</a>

Day 16 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a> was a cross training day, starting with a little morning yoga for flexibility and ending with a Pilates session for strength and coordination.

Skipped day 14 and leapt straight into day 15 of <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/The100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#The100DayProject</a>. First “long run” in my 21k training schedule. It was slower and shorter than I’m used to, but it’s important to build a good base before starting the buildup phase. Since I had some extra time, I stretched with some light yoga 😉<a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Running</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Runner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Runner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/ZenRunner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZenRunner</a> <a href="https://mastoart.social/tags/Kamikazens100DayProject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kamikazens100DayProject</a>
