AM: 16 miles, averaged 7:04. HR 150.
11-Mile Tempo in 75'
Solid one today. 75' @ 344W @ 154 BPM @ 6:48 pace.
I did some band exercises to activate my glutes and other muscles. Warmed up 4 miles around 7:30 pace and got moving. Effort felt more moderate than marathon effort, but probably just about right for opening marathon effort. I just kind of rolled and stayed patient around the 6:50s and planned to go 8, but felt extremely comfortable and then decided to do 10, then though maybe 12, miscounted my miles and thought I was at 12 and was going to 13, but I was at 10 going to 11, which was fine. I had run long enough at a solid effort.
6:56, 6:56, 6:53, 6:51, 6:48, 6:49, 6:44, 6:48, 6:45, 6:43, 6:38
