AM: 8.3 miles, averaged 8:25. HR 145. 

5 x 7' Subthreshold

Decent workout. 7:50-7:28. HR 152-159. Legs a little beat up, but got slightly faster each rep. Things are going to take a while, but I expect things to snowball once I get my consistency back, which will be thwarted by a minor surgery next week. 

PM: 70' on the trainer. 195W. HR 128. 

3 x 10' Subthreshold 

Second mixed double threshold session test. Lactate was still a bit too high, but I was closer to the target. 238W @ 144 BPM @ 3.9 mmols, 233W @ 146 BPM @ 3.3 mmols, 238W @ 145 BPM @ 4.0 mmols
