Welshrunner, kelloggsontherun #12 Why so serious? Not off to war. It's all relative, let's bonk some more.

Wow. That pace dropped off a ton and heart rate remained high. That last 0.1 was at the pace that she’s trying to convince everyone is her easy pace.

 

[bobbinz]

She’s defo achieving consistency tho - with those constantly descending strava pace graphs! Every time

 

[irunforfun]

That run is called a reverse half pyramid. It’s one of the most common sessions used by runfluencers who work down their pacing ladder.

So park run was a coaching group meet up. Let’s hope she wasn’t doing a demo on how to pace a good solid 5k

Wonder what she tells her clients this type of run is called . Her parkrun splits today…

Omg you really couldn’t get much worse than that! Almost a whole minute per mile difference between the first and third (and final) mile. Wtf is she doing?!

 

[Justwanttochat80]

Started out too fast trying to keep up with all the other coaches and then her real (not fake insta) pace showed. She might be able to lie all over the gram, but truth always shows in real life.

 

[Lastqueenofscotland]

But that “too fast” (7:51) is essentially what she’ll need to run a 3:30… give or take a few seconds, surely she can’t think she’ll actually do it at Valencia

 

[Wannabrunner39]

Valencia (if she gets to the start line!) will probably be captioned with…..

I mean she went to Riga for a ‘solid trainjng run’ after all
---
In all her years of training for a Boaton BQ these are the three best 10k times she’s managed in all time

It’s a double post from me and a double run day from kell.
Loads and loads of elapsed time. Really sensible after a run this morning that was clearly hard going on her based on the reverse insta pyramid run (as aptly named above!)

I’m pulling up my chair. Road to Valencia Bonk is a go go!

I’ve been sitting here since the summer. I’m about ready to swap my popcorn for my M&S merry munch.

Bring it on. Bonus points for a late entry from tits.

 

[EC1A]

Aka Tits got lumbered with his own child for the morning. And he only knows one method of entertainment (which, of course, has to benefit him first and foremost).

 

[EC1A]

And looks like the afternoon as well! Such a loving dad treating his son to a double run day.

Fuck me, I’ve genuinely never seen such selfishness in an adult.

 

[runderpants]

Jesus Christ. Tell me you hate spending one on one time face to face with your kid without telling me you hate one on one face to face time with your kid. Instead throw the kid in a buggy twice in one day where you don’t have to look at him and do what you wanna do. What they gonna do when he doesn’t fit in a buggy? Which I feel is pretty much now.

My youngest is the same age and there is no way in hell he would stay in the run buggy for more than1 or 2 miles. Bet the kids hates it. How sad.

 

[irunforfun]

He’s nearly four! I’m pretty sure there are far better things he would choose to do than sit in a buggy for hours, multiple times a day.

 

[zetta buttons]

Cue Welloggs reposting shite from Chicago (2 hours is crazzzzyyy though ).

Edit- he needs to stop being so fucking predictable.

 

[Camperfan]

He's nearly 4 isn't he? It's good if they don't share this stuff but you never hear her mention playdates, kids parties, soft play... does she actually socialise with anyone outside of running, mum friends? Really isolated way to live

 

[Wannabrunner39]

Are they actually easy miles though kel or just more junk miles?! We’re on a 45 mile week without even peaking for marathon training yet!
Also she’s shared her joy at her clients achievements today including the lance fitness journey but when you read his post, he’s disappointed with his time and it wasn’t a PB. Ditch the coach Lance before you too end up reverse pyramid running !

And actually if you look at the last 8 days, she did a half to add to the 45 miles, big week...

 

[eyethinkyousuck]

He posted one of his coached runners on his stories. Had a look at her stats. Does he not give them any guidance on pace/HR?! Does he not look at their stats to see what they’re doing?! One of the runs posted was a “recovery run” with an average HR in the mid 160s.
