Yesterday I, was back to hill repeats.
#running
52 Weeks, 52 Half Marathons
Stage 26 - Completed, I am 2 behind
Two weeks of extreme heat, lack of sleep and mourning a relative.
It was hard today, my legs were heavy.

Stage 27 - the inverted Dirac.
A stroll to the beach and back under too much sun…

52 Weeks, 52 Half Marathons
Stage 18, again 24k - it was hard today. I had four consecutive days of only 4 hours of sleep and it showed. I also started later than usual to try to avoid the rain.
Long climbs today.
52 Weeks, 52 Half Marathons
Stage 09/2026
Very windy, and of course , against me as I climbed. Beautiful day.

Sometimes the trail sends you down and you have no idea why. All is good 👍
Cross training recovery ride needs a recovery of itself 🤣
I did a very slow ride with my wife and this was my only single track where I was having fun while she rode on the road on the way back. A bunch of leaves tricked me and the bike went one way and I went the other. Not hurt
It’s hill repeats Thursday. Rain and gray skies to make it more challenging. Glad to have a new episode of @atpfm@mastodon.social today.
52 Weeks, 52 Half Marathons
Stage 08 - Sintra Loop
Another controlled run up my mountain.
It was very windy and cold
52 Weeks, 52 Half Marathons
Stage 11 - another expedition from base camp to the peaks of Sintra. Today I pushed the climbs and the mountain almost won , almost 😅
Last night iI had a fun intervals session (wind and rain messing with me).
Off we go to an aerobic run tonight
Spring is still too chilly - 7 degrees of easy Z2
It’s MTB Sunday! Running X-Training
GoPro auto edits are little bit cheesy with the music, but low effort to execute 🤣
Edit: movie not uploaded 🙄
TGIF and a Good Friday.
It’s recovery MTB day and finally there’s sunshine in the mountains!
Shakeout run before a HM09.
Lunch time runs alway have to be short :(

@sebastianhahn@mastodon.world between the heat wave and a mattress that needs to be replaced my sleep has been terrible and it shows immediately in my performance.
Glad to hear that you have been able to rest more
Final one with two guitar masters. Portuguese Carlos Paredes and Spanish Paco de Lucía. I am sure they would have been great mountain bikers 🤣
Cross training complete - back to running
Rolling down the Malveira “river” trail
Reconnaissance mode - we had not been here in a few months. Next time we come back for the jumps
Meet - The Tunnel!
We had not been here for a few months, still many obstacles but tremendous fun.
Speed is always 1x - Fooling around with lens does the magic

@teufen@mas.to The words “dune reps” will make your legs heavy from the thought alone.
Tomorrow is another day - you will crush it as usual 👊
Now for the relaxed automated edit of today’s ride.
MTB is undoubtedly the perfect cross training sport for me.
How adjusting lens correction affects the speed sensation of a GoPro movie (and distortion).
From a granny to a pro…
I used FFMPEG to create the mosaic, Mastodon will probably ruin the quality…
All videos are at 1x
The importance of perspective. This video is not sped up, the perspective is adjusted to provide a closer feeling to the real speed on the trail

@atpfm@mastodon.social @Marco@mastodon.social Overcast transcript implementation is brilliant. Fantastic job, from the Mac mini farm idea to the APP.
Parabéns! 👌

@marcoarment@mastodon.social @caseyliss@mastodon.social I have been and still am, an Apple die hard but… not on the watch! come to the Garmin side. Battery life makes all the difference for everything related to working out.
Replying to
@atpfm@mastodon.social @Marco@mastodon.social while the proprietary cables on Garmin are nuisance, if you loose one, for charging it’s irrelevant given how long the battery lasts, unlike the Apple Watch.
This is key also, and I have not listened to you talk about it, because of sleep tracking. Sleep tracking/recovery is key for sports and health purposes. I have never done sleep tracking on my Apple Watch for almost 10 years. I never take my Garmin off my wrist except for charging which is at most once a week.I run/bike a lot.

@coachmike66@mastodon.social @marcoarment@mastodon.social @caseyliss@mastodon.social they do, for sure not as convenient as Apple Watch, but for all the time that I had Apple Watches (10years) I have never listened to music or podcasts through them. Always carry my phone with me in a pocket
