Another mediocre run on the treadmill. My heart rate was around 180 at the end of my run, and five minutes later was still well above 120. I ran a 9:05 pace the whole time. Some of you have sent me suggestions as to why I'm not feeling well this week-thank you!. I feel like I drink enough water, but maybe I haven't been lately. My workload has dramatically increased this week to a level where I expect it to stay. Maybe my body needs time to adjust to a higher level of stress. My husband is feeling out of sorts also. We are leaving for a week-long vacation in one week in Connecticut. I'll be running at sea level, in cool weather, with no work-related stress-yeah! It will be interesting to see how that week goes.
Tomorrow will be a rest day, and then a 10K in Flagstaff Saturday morning! |
