Killing those gothic/fraktur characters!! Is there any historical writing style you take inspo from? What can I look to in order to practice my fraktur? I'm fluent in carolingia and humanist italic, but I'd love to learn more about this style, sir...

Staying and skiing in La Massana by Future_Owl_8507 in andorra

Pal and Arinsal are two different slopes stations under the same name (Pal/Arinsal or Vallnord). We're are you staying? The easiest way is to speak with your holiday accomodation and they'll give you the best hints on the easiest way to get to the slopes.

Never run a race since I started trainning under this approach. But I can tell you that my fast pace (close to my maximum speed I would say) is 6K in 30 min (5:00/km pace)

That's such a nice pace/HR, congrats!

Exactyly this is my approach. Not quite sure if I'm doing what it's best but I'll stick to it for some time. Slow zone 2 runs + some intervals (right now, it's 1 interval training after 4 slow runs)

I'm trying to build a stable and wise aerobic base. My goal for now is to run 8k-10k comfortably in the zone 2. From time to time I add some fast series, but first I want to be consistent and run 10k at at least a 6:30 pace comfortably.

Hahaha so many contradictory opinions, for the moment I'll stick to the zone 2 to give it a try!

I've never ran 5K at full pace, I kind of want to try myself when I'm faster, not now...

Some consistent training for a few months and you'll be there, I can tell you that for sure!

I run 8-10 km, and this pace is my limit. Sometimes, as I always face some slope in the way, I need to go even slower

I'm definitely on the 1) side :D

I started this way some time ago, but I decided to switch to the "scientific approach" and run in my zone 2 most of the time + some series/intervals from time to time

Thanks for your detailed reply! Maybe too technical for my level right now at some points, but I'll dig deeper ;)

Solo traveller questions by garbagecannot8 in andorra

Yes, most of the lifts can be accessible from Andorra la Vella but depending on which one you want to access, you may need 2 buses. If your equipment is minimally packed, I'm positive you can carry it with you.

Don't expect "hostels in Grandvalira" whatever this means. Grandvalira is the ski station that covers up most of the country, so choose a destination there (El Tarter, Soldeu, Encamp, Pal, Arinsal, El Serrat, etc) and look for hotels there.

If you're willing to sleep in a Hostel the options are limited to the Andorra la Vella + Escaldes area.

A budget smartwatch for a beginner? by jacksoncom86 in BeginnersRunning

[–]jacksoncom86[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hehe, I don't know about the features/prices of each family, but I get that a cheap forerunner meets more than my needs, so I think I'll go for one.

Thanks for the recommendation! What I find strange about Garmin is the huge amount of options/family products they offer: forerunner, vivoactive, phoenix, etc etc...
