In cycling you do have a training focus area called "Sweetspot". It sits just below (80-90%) your Functional Threshold Power(FTP) .
It looks like the term Sweetspot is not being used in running so I am introducing it today 
I proudly present my Sweetspot run training for today.

Only 2 weeks left untill SnowDonia Ultra (55km/3400+)
These last 2 weeks are taper weeks and the trainingload decrease has already started.
I am feeling ready and can't wait to get started .
The body is a bit lazy of all the recent low HR work. Upcoming Sunday a bit faster long run 
.

About last weekend's final longest long run before UTS50.
My running buddy Bas made the movie. I am the guy with the silly hat

I finally managed to fix the issue of wrong pace and distance on my Garmin Fenix 7 watch.
It turned out that my Garmin HRM-Pro heart rate can be configured to determine pace and distance based on cadence.
After switching off that option the GPS from the watch was being used again and all was fine.
D-21 till UTS50
#trailrunning #runnersofmastodon #UltraRunner #mastorunNL #running
The easy runs are getting faster.
I see it as increasing fitness towards ISU50.
Today back to work after a productive long Easter weekend where we painted the outside house.
Upcoming weekend the longest run from the training plan (5hrs).
After that only 2 weeks taper left to the race 
.

Time well spend on Easter weekend. Painted the outside house and did even had some time left for a workout.

3hrs easy up-and-down on my one-and-only favourite hill 
.
Brought some Fruit Jellies from Decathlon.
They taste real good and are easy to eat while running. And no sticky mess like with gels.

Garmin was complaining that I have been doing too little high aeroob training lately.
The Garmin Daily Suggested Workout advised me therefore to do 18 minutes at Threshold Heart rate so that's what I did

A 2h30 easy run today.
According to #Runalyze my marathon readiness is 102%.
So I am ready for the Rotterdam Marathon this weekend.
But it aint gonna happen.
I am saving my legs and energy for #SnowDonia in 5 weeks
.

End of a chapter.
My first Trailrunning shoes, the Salomon SpeedCross 6.
Great shoes but nowadays I prefer another type of shoe.
The nice weather yesterday invited for a long run. 5 weeks to go until Snowdonia 50km.

An easy run of an hour would have become a 10km pb. That seemed very unlikely to me and it was. My Garmin Fenix 7 appeared to be off track again and had calculated 2km longer than the actual distance 
An export / import of the GPX recovered the distance but I become more and more disappointed with Garmin. Crashes, wrong distance, there always seems to be something wrong nowadays.

a 3-hour bike ride was planned for today. Lack of time and strong wind made me not really feel like it. So a 2-hour trail run as a replacement.
A great run despite the same distance last Saturday.

Easy run with a, statistic inevitable, fall .
Luckily no injuries, just some scratches.
