First "proper" session, suggested by my watch. Running on hills is hard work.

Just 40mins easy for today, decided to talk a bit about why carbon plates improve running performance, and if there are better options for some runners. Next week, how do foams work.

Doing these at a rough approximation of marathon effort. Running in Sheffield is bloody difficult, but it will help me get stronger so that's something at least. Also, wind is forecast to be super bad on Saturday so I may well end up on the indoor bike.

Trying to work some VO2 Max into my week to keep progressing my fitness. Feeling really positive about this return to running.

Final session of this week, sort of a "Long run".

Think my fitness is starting to come back already, still a ways to go though. The focus of this session was vaguely LT2, so that higher aerobic capacity but not quite VO2Max, saving that for next week. Footage looks much better this time, so this will be my recording set up moving forward.

Apologies for the shaky footage, still getting used to this camera. This is my first run/walk session, trying to build my fitness back up for 2025.

Spent a lot of money on this camera I may as well use it. Praying to whichever gods will favour me that I get my fitness back quickly.
