Training plan ending too soon

Hi,

I am coming back to you guys with a question with the hope that you can guide me to take the best decision.

So, I am currently training for a Marathon in October, using Pfitz's 18/55 plan. I intentionally started a bit earlier, just to make sure I have a buffer period which I can use to do runs that I might miss, but now it hit me: is that a good idea, or it should be better to extend the taper block?

Thank you!

Reuperare creante

Salutare,

Am si eu o intrebare si ma gandeam ca ma poate ajuta cineva cu un sfat.

Relativ recent, maica-mea s-a trezit cu o somatie "demers anterior executarii silite", de la un executor judecatoresc, reprezentand o firma de recuperare creante. Era adresata tatalui meu care e decedat, si se refera la o presupusa creanta avuta la fostul provider de servicii de cablu si internet (nu stiu daca e asta relevant).

Contractul cu respectivii a fost inchis in 2015, si eu din ce imi amintesc, nu existau datorii (imi amintesc chiar ca platisera ultima factura ca altfel nu veneau sa deconecteze si sa ridice echipamentele).

Revenind la acea hartie primita, i-am contactat sa imi spuna si mie despre ce e vorba. Au zis ca nu-mi pot da detalii, sa le trimit certificatul de deces. L-am trimis, iar cand au revenit cu "informatii", mi-au zis doar ce scria si in acel document.

Am revenit si le-am cerut documente, facturi, PVuri, ceva sa dovedeasca acea creanta. Au revenit dupa o luna spunand ca fiind o situatie veche, nu au documente, dar imi propun o reducere cu 40% a soldului:)).

Acum, eu din ce stiu, si daca aceasta creanta ar exista, ar trebui sa fie prescrisa de mult timp. Stiu ca prescriptia nu se aplica by default, ci trebuie urmata o procedura in instanta.

Suma nu este extrem de mare, insa nu as vrea sa ajung sa platesc ceva ce nu ar trebui platit.

Acum intrebarile mele sunt: in cazul in care astia merg in instanta, cam cat ar costa un avocat care sa ma ajute cu procedura care trebuie urmata? Sa stiu daca merita, ca in cazul in care costa mai mult, nu stiu daca are sens. Aveti vreo recomandare? Sau cum caut un avocat care sa se ocupe cu asta?

Multumesc.

Target pace and GA pace

Hi guys,

Last year I did my first marathon, without an actual serious training program. I was mixing a Garmin training plan with their daily suggestions and I also skipped a lot of workouts. I finished in 3:57:29, which wasn't bad, considering the "training", but I felt like it could have been better.

After asking for a recommendation here for a training program, I decided to try Pfitz 18/55 program (as I am not sure I would have time for one with more volume). I am in the 3rd week and everything's going well until now.

My questions are the following:

  1. How do you set your target objective - I was thinking at a 3:45 target time. Trying to be realistic and not set a super optimistic target. Better to be surprised than dissapointed, but also I wouldn't like to have the feeling that I should have trained for a better time.

  2. How do you handle the GA/Recovery paces? Previously I wasn't really paying attention to the pace. I was kinda running based on the feeling. For example, when I was doing runs with 5:30/km I was considering that a slow run. Now, if I am comparing to my objective my GA runs should be 6:08-6:40/km, which feels painfully slow. Don't get me wrong, I am following the rule and I understand the theory behind it but it still bugs me:)).

Not sure if it's relevant to add any other information, but I can follow up if needed. Any other feedback on approaching this plan is highly appreciated.

Thanks a lot!

Training program

Hi guys,

I just want to ask for an advice from the more experienced runners. Although I'm into running since 2020, I only did my first marathon in October last year. What I did, as a "training program" was a mix between the intermediate program from Garmin, and Garmin coach recommendations, but I didn't followed that "program" rigorously either - I was adapting it based on how I was feeling, and sometimes skipped some runs. Furthermore, in the last 6-8 weeks I had some issues and couldn't run too much or too often.

In the end, the marathon went well - I finished a bit under 4 hours, which is fine taking into account the fact that the training wasn't optimal. This year I would like to try to do it in 3:45 (what I was hoping for around 3 years ago), and I wanted to ask you if:

  1. Any of you did this using the Garmin plans? Are these good enough?

  2. What plan would you recommend?

Thank you!

Hi guys, title is self-explanatory. I have a 2020 V60, and suddenly the tailgate won't open.

It's not an automatic one. When I press the rubber button, it just clicks, but the tailgate/boot won't open. Tried the dashboard button, the one on the key fob too, but no luck.

I understand that there is a manual handle on the inside, under a plastic cover. I believe I found the cover, but cannot take it out. I was a little scared to force it too much to avoid breaking something.

Anyone encountered this issue? Any solutions?
