PM: Treadmill - 65 minutes. 7-mile steady state tempo. HR 162. 15 minute warmup, about ~41 minutes very steady, cool down
The 41 minutes equated to 7 treadmill miles starting at 10.0 increasing .1 every mile until 10.6. Ended up with a heart rate not far off from some aerobic builders but the last 2-3 miles were 175-179, which is fairly solidly in the LT zone in my experience. Lower 180s tend to be 5k effort for me. It took some concentration but I was able to stay fairly relaxed. Hoping to get a fitness boost from this. I was working hard in the last 3-4 minutes. Definitely the fastest and longest I've run on this particular machine.
If nothing else, this worked as a good destresser. Anxiety and stress is at an all-time high.
