Caught up on sleep last night, so was awake before 6 this morning. Plan was for 7 miles with heart rate between 60-75%, followed by one mile at marathon pace. This heart rate training is tough - mainly because I felt like I was plodding to try and keep my heart rate that low. Ran to Draper and back on 7th East.
Miles 1-7 14:11/14:31/14:42/14:32/14:48/14:04/14;35 Mile 8 10:34 Drank hot chocolate with protein shake mixed in while my daughter called to wish me happy birthday. 1 mile cooldown walk with Twilight. Then Kevin took Twilight away and brought her back in a coat he bought her for my birthday. It has a skull and crossbones on it and a fauxhawk. Hilarious. Plus he got her a life jacket.
