10x1-min reps at Liberty Park, with goal to raise HR to 180+ on each and recovery jogging in between reps until HR dipped back to 140. Warmed up for roughly 2 miles, including some pullouts to get the legs going. After having some dull pain in my left leg behind the knee during much of the day yesterday, I stretched, spent some quality time with the foam roller and the Stick, and iced it. During the pullouts, it was feeling pretty good, so I went ahead with the workout. Splits were:
1. AHR 155 (4:41)
-1:45 recovery
2. AHR 167 (4:43)
-1:42 recovery
3. AHR 169 (4:34)
-1:51 recovery
4. AHR 167 (4:40)
-2:25 recovery
5. AHR 167 (5:03) (seems wrong--I don't think I would have slowed that much)
-3:10 recovery
6. AHR 167 (4:51)
-3:18 recovery
7. AHR 167 (4:43)
-6:59 recovery (and I finally had to stop and walk for 10-15 seconds to bring HR back down--probably a monitor malfunction)
8. AHR 165 (4:41)
-2:52 recovery
9. AHR 166 (4:41)
-1:53 recovery
10. AHR 168 (5:01)
-1:43 recovery
Roughly 1-mile cooldown. Felt good afterward. |
