Running long (HR Zone 3) 2:09:17 15.81 km (8:11 / km) +426m 7:12 / km
ahr:129 max:165
Planned as a long double loop over two hills above Balatonszepezd - ended up doing one only.
Several things went wrong in the planning, wanted to go out early to avoid the heat ended up starting almost an hour late. Also M came along for the first part (which is good), that meant way slower jog than planned so by the time we got to the lookout of Fulop-hill I was almost an hour and a half behind my originally planned schedule.
Got on from that point with controlling the HR zone so a slow tempo anyway, but it got weird when I diverted from the "usual" route to the one I planned for this longer loop using the web to find tracks. These turned out to be long unused tracks, did not see a soul the whole way but did have to fight about 1000000 spiders and spiderwebs - ended up running about 5K with my hand in front of my face to collect the webs there and not with my face. Very unpleasant. That then coupled with the fact that due to me being late it was 33 degrees and baking sun by the time I got down out of the forest to the section by Balaton, and much of the morning was gone at this point so decided to abort the session and finished with the single loop instead. Not that big a tested for the legs in the end but the body got an overall workout anyway.
Upside: seeing a grey fox (?) and a deer up close in the forest.
