Set out at 5 am this morning, made 2 loops around the greenbelt and then up SRL and then down Sunnyside to Hitt road and up Hitt to 17th street and and back the same way. Ran into Jeff and Moxie at mile 10, it is always nice talking to him.
Set out on this run to see if an 8:00 min mile was possible and still stay in the Z2 HR (137-147), 20 miles in 2:39:50 at 7:59 over all pace, with an average HR of 144. At mile 10 pace was 8:07 and the last 10 was at 7:52 pace, had to work at it and focus on the breathing the last few miles. Need to keep working at it, and the hydration was not very well planned out on this run. |
