Today was a good day. I ran the same route I ran M-W. I get to count the full 4.19mi for the first time this week since I didn't walk! In addition, I rode the bike in this morning then did my run immediately before leaving tonight. This is also the first time I've ridden my bike and run in the same day,
so I was surprised I wasn't more exhausted when I got home. Felt good, but that could be from my rest day yesterday.
I was a little tired after the run, but I focused only on running a pace that would allow me to run the whole route without walking. Didn't watch the Garmin except for the .5mi splits (forgot to change it from the 800m intervals from Wed) and my HR. I decided to track the HR to see how it compared to the pace and effort and see if I could keep it consistent. Here are my .5mi splits with avg HR: 4:24 (141), 4:20 (155), 4:30 (156), 4:30 (156), 4:34 (156), 4:31 (158), 4:30 (159), 4:33 (161), 1:51 (162) Looking forward to my "long" run tomorrow. I'm shooting for 6-7mi.
