Still not feeling 100%.  I thought about taking a nap instead of running but decided it might only get harder to find my way out the door later in the week.  Plus this should be a big training week for Painter's.  I did fine and felt better after the run than before the run.

Plan called for 2 FFIs.  Ran on Jordan River Parkway.  Stayed on the plowed sections.  Only patches of slushy ice. 

1.05 mile warmup.

2 Fatigue Fighter Intervals.  Goal paces- 6:13, 6:29, 6:47

1.5 mile cool down.

 FFI #1-   0.25 mile, 6:11-167 bpm max;  100m recovery;  0.75 mile, 6:27-166bpm ave;  200m recovery;   2 miles, 6:49-171bpm ave (would have been on pace w/out U turns);  0.58 mile recovery.  Some wind but not too bad.

FFI #2-  0.26 mile, 6:11-173bpm max;  100m recovery;  0.75 mile, 6:29-169bpm ave;  200m recovery;  2 miles, 6:50-170bpm ave (6:54 & 6:46) (would have been close to pace w/out U turns).  Pushed very hard at the end.

1.5 mile cooldown.

Nice running. Looks like you faught the fatigue. Your second one was just as fast as you first.

I hope you get feeling better fly! You are a better man than me to get out when you are sick.
