EasterMarathon2020 | Day 2

As of today 2100 enthusiastic runners have already registered for the Easter Marathon 2020!

You can register every day, even on the last day (Easter Monday) to make your own personal marathon!

My second day in this marathon challenge over four days was not as hard as yesterday. I attribute this to two major changes:

I dressed "lighter" today. Short pants and T-shirt, after all we had almost +15 degrees Celsius early in the morning. Yesterday I was too much wrapped up in long pants and warm top, which made me sweat very fast and made my pulse shoot up.
In contrast to yesterday, I ran with my mouth closed, so only pure nasal breathing, which is especially recommended by Patrick McKeown when you're doing sports. It really makes a big difference.

The result: With a similar distance I was only slightly slower, but my average heart rate was - compared to yesterday - 8 beats/min. lower, which is very noticeable to me.

Today I am much less exhausted than I was yesterday. I am totally looking forward to my run tomorrow. In all, there are only about 17 km left to run the full marathon distance.

Mein zweiter Tag in dieser Marathon Herausforderung über vier Tage empfand ich nicht so schwer wie gestern. Zwei wesentliche Änderungen mache ich dafür verantwortlich:

Ich zog mich heute "leichter" an. Kurze Hose und T-Shirt, schließlich hatten wir schon frühmorgens knapp +15 Grad Celsius. Gestern war ich langer Hose und warmem Top zu sehr eingepackt, was mich sehr schnell ins Schwitzen brachte und meinen Puls hochschießen ließ.
Ich lief - im Gegensatz zu gestern - mit geschlossenem Mund, also nur pure Nasenatmung, was insbesondere von Patrick McKeown sehr empfohlen wird, wenn man sportlich aktiv ist. Es macht wirklich einen großen Unterschied.

Das Ergebnis: Bei ähnlicher Kilometerleistung war ich nur minimal langsamer, mein durchschnittlicher Puls war aber - gegenüber gestern - um 8 Schläge/Min. geringer, was für mich sehr spürsam ist.

Heute bin ich weit weniger erschöpft als ich es gestern war. Ich freue mich total auf meinen morgigen Lauf. Insgesamt sind es nur noch ca. 17 km, die ich zur vollen Marathondistanz benötige.
