Aight, got something interesting
Next year, I will do a Parkrun in a different province every month!

Alright, so now I know I can fairly easily run over an hour under 150hr at 6:40 pace.
Now to experiment doing intervals between that and faster paces to see if I can also lower my hr with it

27:24 5K, smashed my PB by 1:46
Though I don't know if that heart rate is accurate... 25+ minutes in zone 5 🤔
Though, I'm wearing a heart rate belt, so it should be accurate...

Damn, saw this video yesterday about floating point precision errors.
Did I coincidentally encounter this exact bug today?
Yes, yes I did.

Wanted to get a decent tempo 5K in today, but started way too fast, didn't think I'd still do well after slowing down, so went for a pb mile instead.

Got back to running, can still do 2 miles at 10kph pace, not great, but not as bad I was expecting.
Over 6 months to get into 10 miles shape, doing 3 runs + 2 cycling sessions per week (replacing cycling sessions with extra treadmill sessions in case of bad weather) so should be perfectly doable
