😊 if only running as well as a goat was happening!! A good road run is lovely too, and a lot less rolled ankles 😁

Not very summery here at the moment but that's at least good for running! Long weekend run up in my beloved hills. 16.2km, 643m elevation gain. #RunChat #RunnersOfBluesky #Running #NZ #RunSky

Chilling after a Saturday night out(side!)... I do love this little mitten so much! #CatsOfBluesky #Cats #Caturday

Aw it's hard after such a long streak to start again... So important to listen to your body though. I'd say you've won plenty with 311 days!

Last #halfmarathon of the year at the Spectacle in #Nelson #Nz. Perfect running weather with it being cool, dry and cloudy. It's a beautiful course and a lovely event, recommended!! According to my watch, 22.8 k and 1100m total ascent. #RunSky #RunChat #run #runnersofbluesky

Lovely #run along the water front in our lovely capital Wellington. Still doing 5k flats thanks to the slow healing plantar fasciitis... Came across this awesome NZ police car in #rainbow colours - how cool are they?! #RunSky #RunnersOfBluesky #NZ

Dealing with injuries is so incredibly humbling. And it feels like losing fitness happens so fast when you're in your 50s. But it's still beautiful out there running and walking on a spring morning though, just slower... 11.7k and 445m ascent. #RunSky #RunnersOfBluesky #Running #NZ

Flat 5k runs are all I'm allowed at the mo with my grumpy foot... So I'm trying to focus on the fun aspects of those. #running #RunnersOfBluesky #Runsky #NZ

Friday night #run, it was lovely though my foot is more sore than I'd like now. 12.9k and 270m ascent. #Runsky #RunnersOfBluesky #Marlborough #NZ

And back into events, a lovely day to do the Seddon Tussock Run 10k, with my warm up it was a 12k. Foot was happy, such a relief! Plus Supercute lambs along the way 🥰 #Marlborough #NZ #running #RunnersOfBluesky #RunSky

Soo nice to be running (carefully!) again😊

Finally out on a lovely evening run again. Injuries are just not much fun!! Very early signs of spring around but the nights are still frosty...❄️ #Marlborough #NZ #RunSky #RunnersOfBluesky #Running

So fortunate about the low scale of impacts wasn't it! It took about 9 hours for the wave to reach our dart buoys here. No impacts fortunately and the threat was marine, though the advisories have only just been lifted, it's been seiching between here and South America, so takes a while to stop...

kaja3000.bsky.social @kaja3000.bsky.social · 31/07/2025

Streams were up for this after work #trailrun after more rain. But work was full on overnight, responding to the marine #Tsunami warnings after the big quake in Russia, so the muddy run helped clear my head 😊 7.1k and 70m elevation. #Running #RunnersOfBluesky #Runsky

Back in our own hills today here in #Marlborough #NZ. Proper frosty start and a glorious later in the morning. So nice 😊 There were a few cute creatures here today, those lambs seem very early! 18.5k, 628m elevation. #RunSky #Running #RumnersOfBluesky

I love hills ⛰️ with their rewarding views when you've made it up!

Thank you🙏🏻, it was one of the coolest events I've done!

kaja3000.bsky.social @kaja3000.bsky.social · 12/07/2025

Well today was a tough event! Really cool though. #Wellington NZ Urban Ultra #Halfmarathon - was 22.6km according to my watch, and 1200m elevation. Ironically it's almost all #Trailrun. A mudfest too after all the rain but got to see the sun! #Running #RunSky #RunnersOfBluesky

kaja3000.bsky.social @kaja3000.bsky.social · 06/07/2025

Back in NZ! It's been very soggy, but I managed to get a run in today, 12.8k and 515m elevation. Fortunately our state of emergency in #Marlborough has now ended. #Run #RunSky #RunnersOfBluesky #NZ

Another #Trailrun in beautiful early summer #Berlin. Round lakes Schlachtensee and Krumme Lanke plus getting there made 15.1k and 161m elevation. A swim💦 in the Krumme Lanke after made for the perfect finish. #Running #RunnersOfBluesky #RunSky

#Running in #Berlin!! Some #trailrunning and some #roadrunning. Pleasantly cool after the heat in Italy. 16k, and even managed to find 180m total ascent in this flat place! #RunSky #RunnersOfBluesky

Trip to #Pompeii, amazing and humbling, especially when you work in #emergencymanagement in #NZ. First an earthquake then a vulcano, 2,000 years ago. #History #Italia #Campania

It's been a wet and cold #Caturday so Jackson needed a good toweling! #CatsOfBluesky #Cats

Our cat sometimes looks like a ferret. My delightful friend dubbed the cat a 'carret'(🐈+ferret). Does that count too??

kaja3000.bsky.social @kaja3000.bsky.social · 01/06/2025

Kaiteriteri #halfmarathon #NZ ticked off, but really more survived, it was tough!! 21.5k and 1005m total acsent, and all that while aiming to beat a deadline. Unapologetic couch time now!!! #Run #RunSky #RunnersOfBluesky

Thank you so much ❤️ the forecast is good, the legs rested so very much looking forward to it now 😊

kaja3000.bsky.social @kaja3000.bsky.social · 26/05/2025

So just enough to still be tired for a good sleep... 😊

010

kaja3000.bsky.social @kaja3000.bsky.social · 26/05/2025

Particularly hard when I love the routine 😊 so I guess the challenge is how to enjoy the taper (almost!) as much as being out in the hills...!

000

kaja3000.bsky.social @kaja3000.bsky.social · 26/05/2025

Thank you! It's sooo tempting to add that little bit extra when it's so fun being out there... Trusting the process is great advice 😊

110

kaja3000.bsky.social @kaja3000.bsky.social · 25/05/2025

That's exactly how I feel... As if I'm being lazy, even though it's part of the plan... And thank you, cross fingers for the weather!

000

kaja3000.bsky.social @kaja3000.bsky.social · 25/05/2025

That is beautiful! We don't get gorgeous historic buildings like that over here. Haha and the only reason I stopped on a parkrun so far was to meet a delightful Jack Russell puppy. The snuggle was totally worth it 😊

kaja3000.bsky.social @kaja3000.bsky.social · 25/05/2025

Hi #RunSky friends, do you find it hard to stick to your tapering before an event? On both runs this weekend I snuck in a hill I hadn't planned on and found reasons to go an extra km or two. I hope it won't come to bite me at the Kaiteriteri #HalfMarathon next Sunday... #RunnersOfBluesky #Run

The wrist HR is very random, definitely! Good luck with the strap, and if you find you have a preference between pace and HR😊

120

kaja3000.bsky.social @kaja3000.bsky.social · 19/05/2025

That sounds very organised 🙃 I guess HR... But the technique is that I'm trying to go up the steep slopes into our hills as fast as my HR allows. Not very scientific but the last time I did this consistently twice a week I knocked 13 minutes off my Loch mara #halfmarathon time...
