7am. Convinced Gitt to do the Jurong Lake 5k with me in July (she doesn't run!) so I forced her to get up with me and took her to the track. :-) Walked there, and she did about 20 minutes of jog/walk so I was really proud of her! I think she will be able to do it no problem. HR was 75 before I left. I need to figure out what it is before I get out of bed. I did almost a 2 mile warm-up, then 3 400's, a 400 of recovery after the first and an 800 of recovery after the 2nd. While I ran these faster than last week, I couldn't do the 4th one and I had to walk after 3.5 (after the 3rd 400) for a bit because I was about to have a heart attack. Then I ran home to round it out at 4 miles. TT: 37:29 AP: 9:22 (look at that!) AHR: 152 Splits (HR): 1:58 (164), 1:56 (169), 1:59 (173) I don't think its good for me for it to go over 170. I think I may need to walk the recovery lap when I do these. The nice thing about here is there are no lunches to be made, no animals to be taken care of (though I miss my pets horribly!), and its pointless to dry/fix your hair. Plus you take cold showers so there's no lingering in the shower! So I can get ready for work in only 15-20 minutes!
PS - According to Runner's World my max heart rate is 188.
PM Workout - Did about half of a 50+ minute Speed and Agility Insanity video with Tina. Everything crawling on the ground made me want to die so I didn't do all of that, but all of the rest.
