Workout: 6.0 miles total
intervals - 3 mile run, 3x3:00 RP, 1 mile cool down
Pace: average 9:48
Incline: 2%
Time: 59:45
Weight: 128.8
Was not looking forward to this run. In fact, I did everything I could to avoid it all morning. Just wasn't excited about running 3 miles and THEN killing myself with the intervals. Would much prefer to just go straight to intervals. But I did it and it was fine. I got interrupted a million times during the 3 mile run, so instead of taking 30:00, I think it probably took 35-40 to finally get that section completed (running time was 30 minutes - held myself to a 10:00 pace).
I did the 3:00 RP at 8:57 and the 5:00 in between at 5.8 for 1 1/2 minutes and 6.0 for the rest. One mile cool down was at 9:30 pace because I wanted to enjoy that mile.
Heart rate was again consistently 180. One full minute after finishing, it was 138, so I'm recovering fairly well, which is a good fitness indicator. Still troubling that it is so high while I'm running, but it always has been. 174 during the 3 mile run and 180 when I was totally finished. Not quite max heart rate, but pretty close. Would rather be running at 160-165, but not sure how to get there.
