Did my first-ever lactate testing for running. I've done it recently on the bike twice, but think the combination of a treadmill and lactate testing is pretty efficient. I used to not do well at the sight of blood, but after donating plasma a bit over the last few months, it is easy peasy.
Why bother with lactate testing as a hobby jogger? Pure curiosity, and when I started running I became a student of the sport, and that is when I did my best work. I have learned a good deal since then and just fiddling with a few changes.
PM: 3 miles on the treadmill, averaged 11:40. HR 115.
+35' sauna after. The boys came down in the basement while I was in there and were talking to me through the window. They were quite interested.
