Day ThirtyEight
Got home later from work and did my 50 min run. I felt like pushing the pace and was able to hold my HR down below 155 for about 25 min while keeping a 8:20. After 25 min I had to start to slow a bit to stop my HR from rising. All in all it was a good run and finished with 5.5 miles run and 8:58 avg pace. I was pleased with the run but my calves did start to hurt halfway into the run. It is fun to start to see the improvement that happens each week. I can really tell if I take some time off to recover fully I will come back so strong. The endurance is really starting to build on itself and in 3 weeks I will start the speed workouts, which will be cool to see my pace start to drop even more. Training really takes a lot of time but it is starting to pay off. I just hope it will when it comes time to race.
