Total Distance
7.35

Ran 7.35 miles at BPA trail with Lisa and Anya.  Great to finally all get together again!  Some walking in the first 4 miles, but probably at least 6.8-7 of this was running.  Afterwards a little bit of tennis with Justin to get him ready for this weekend, but I didn't work too hard. :-)

I also FINALLY used the heart rate monitor for the very first time!  Yaaaay me for meeting one of my goals I set like 3 months ago!  

TT: 1:17:17   AP: 10:31  Avg BPM: 135   Max BPM: 165

Splits: 10:09, 10:52, 11:56, 12:20, 9:48, 9:25, 9:26

The BPM are interesting, they go: 125, 126, 127, 120, 144, 150, 156, 157.  I wonder what my resting heart rate is?  I want to find out more about this.  I also walked a quarter mile on the treadmill last night BAREFOOT!  :-)

Time for LOST!

Hurray for you for using the heart rate monitor; I didn't even know you had it on! Good for you!!
