A month ago I usually ran 10-15 km during trainings at average pace (5:10) with average heart rate (145 bpm).

Then I had two weeks break.

I returned to trainings and now I can maintain previous average pace with heart rate of 154 bpm.

How could it be that I lost my fitness shape or running technique so fast? I can't understand my body.

Good afternoon.

I'd like to get recommendations on winter running, especially when it is snowing.

1. Is it advisable to run on snow?
2. Which running shoes should I choose in order not to slip or sink into the snow?
3. Maybe it is better to move to running on an indoor track or a treadmill in winter?

Suppose it is very popular question you hear from a beginner.

I have time to run both in the morning and in the evening (I have flexible hours and I like to sleep). I can't run early in the morning because I feel like my body is still sleeping. If I run at my average pace, heart rate during running will be 165 beats per minute in the morning and 150-155 in the evening. So, I can conclude that my body is warmed up enough in the evening and "sleeps" in the morning. Is it true?

Thanks for your reply.

Good afternoon.

I have the following question: how many days are required to recover after a marathon?

How long is it recommended not to train if you're an amatuer?

Good afternoon.

I want to ask two questions.

I train according to the 80/20 rule and have a plan which I follow to do 5 trainings a week.

1. Sometimes there is no opportuninty to train. What to do? How can I compensate for missed trainings? After all, I can miss training of different types (interval/short training/long training etc.).
2. And the second question: sometimes I don't have enough time to recover after the previous training and my body refuses to train according the planned load.

What to do in these cases: follow the training plan at any cost, replace scheduled training by short recovery run or give my body a rest?
