September 22, 2011 on Thursday

Yesterday I spoke to Bryan about running Wednesdays for an hour at 9:00 pace.  I figure if I have a running partner, the run would get done.  I tested this today.  The run turns out to be midpoint Marathon Pace heart rate intensity range run (at least it was today).  I ran 6.73 miles in 1:00:09 at 8:56 pace per mile with AHR being 147 bpm which is 84% MHR.  MP is 79-88% MHR.  It was the Route 22 Out and Back route at 8:15am.  Range of splits were 8:54 to 8:58.
