How are you guys doing long runs in zone 2 ? Running is fun and all but z2 runs are hell to me.
First it’s super slow and that bores me, i juste want to roon faster. I can run a 10k in 45min but even at 5’45”/km which definitely is easy run territory i’m already in low z3. And it’s supposed to be easier on your body but at that pace my cadence drops and i feel like my running form turn to shit. Shins and knees hurt more at 6min/km than at 4’45”/km.
Z2 training is so much more enjoyable with swiming, biking or hiking. But i’m still new to running… are long slow run really necessary to reinforce my running tendons/muscles/articulations ?
