25 minutes basic run in zone 3 No idea why it's called a basic run, that's what it says on my polar watch Went to the top floor of my apartment to get this shot of the city Have a great weekend everyone #instarunners #slowkidsofinstagram #nikerunning #nikeplus #nikefuel

Interval run 3 x work 4 min in zone 4-5 recover 6 min in zone 3 One thing I noticed when running uphill during interval run is that it programs my subconscious to attack hills which is the wrong thing to do in a race Probably I should practice doing the fast interval running downhill and do the recovery going uphill #runner #nikefuel #nikeplus #nikerunning #slowkidsofinstagram #instarunners

Lost 2.4kg in 2 months, that is pretty slow weight loss. I was targeting 1kg a week which shows how delusional I can be. I'm just grateful that the trend is in the right direction though. #weightloss #weightlossjourney #fatburner #fat #burnfat #fatfighter #myfitnesspal

Yikes! I just bought these Nike shoes and after only 4 runs the flywire thingy broke What poor quality Typical of my experience with other Nike product, the quality are so inconsistent across the range, there are good ones and others which are seriously crappy Just like the Nike+ app, it is the worst performing app on my iPhone It's slow, unresponsive and buggy the only reason I'm still using it is because I've got so much running history recorded with it @nike @nikemy @nikesupport #nike #nikemy #nikelove #nikeshoes #nikesupport #nikefuel #nikeplus #nikerunning #instarunners #run

Interval run 3 x work 4 min in zone 4-5 recover 8 min in zone 3 Sometimes I imagine that the people driving past are impressed by my uphill sprints This is a mind trick I use to silence the negative chatter in my head when it gets too painful In reality it's more likely that no one notices and even if they do they probably feel a deep sense of pity for this sad person I don't care which is true as long as the mind trick has the desired effect Which goes to show that it's not important what other people think about you What's more important is what you think other people is thinking about you What do you think? Never mind, It's not important 😜 #runner #nikefuel #nikeplus #nikerunning #instarunners #slowkidsofinstagram

40 minutes run in heart rate zone 3 I'm liking this heart rate based training program because my pace is determined by my fitness level and this reduces injuries Also it's a bit difficult using a pace based training program for me because my neighbourhood is quite hilly #slowkidsofinstagram #instarunners #nikerunning #nikeplus #nikefuel #runner

Sunday long ultra slow jog in heart rate zone 2 I actually drove quite far away to a quiet industrial area to do this run so that no one can see me On intervals day I want to be seen running fast uphill by the neighbours On these ultra slow days I'm very shy Because people talk And I just don't want wild rumours that I have constipation or something to spread around #slowkidsofinstagram #run #runner #nikefuel #nikeplus #nikerunning #instarunners

I'm going to be 49 this year but my metabolic age is around 20 The secret isn't the exercise but the diet There is a dangerous misconception that if you a runner you can get away with a poor diet as you can see by the popular meme "I run so that I can eat" I hate that meme and it's a dangerous one If you follow it you can run 30+ races a year and still be fat or be 30 but have a metabolic age of someone much older The truth is that "you can never ever outrun a poor diet" I know people who focus on 80% diet and 20% exercise go from fat to elite And people who "run so that they can eat" getting fatter whilst wasting money entering every race in sight #irunsoicaneat #youcannotouttrainabaddiet #youcannotoutexerciseabaddiet #youcantoutrunabaddiet #diet #excercise
