Running 20:59 2.06 mi (10:11 / mi) +27m 9:47 / mi
ahr:120 max:145
Warm up while reading a course Alex penned in on St. Georges. After reading Sam's blog entry about what the vegetation and such was like at Grand Jorat, was thinking way more about using trails, which I guess is likely to be the name of the game...
Drills 2:21 0.17 mi (14:00 / mi)
ahr:123 max:149
Running race 17:48 5.0 km (3:34 / km) +56m 3:22 / km
ahr:175 max:183
Noho 5k - last one before WOC!
So I've done 7 of these this spring and summer, starting on April 3rd. Here's how my times, places, and avg HR have gone:
18.24 (5th) ---
18.17 (1st) 180
18.02 (2nd) 175
18.04 (1st) 178
17:34 (5th) 171
18.12 (5th) ---
17:47 (2nd) 175
In general, clear improvement, although 2 weeks ago was not so good. I think I was coming down ill and also probably not recovered from the weekend. Today's race still didn't rival the PR, but it was hotter today and didn't quite have as many rabbits around to chase, but was super-glad Aaron was there, tried to not let the seconds slip away to him!!
Places are totally not correlated with times, but there might be something there with HR... Good days seem to have lower avg HRs, although I'm sure would not meet the Higgs test =). I feel like the 171 on the PR day is kinda crazy low for me.... is that indicating I was fully recovered on that day??
