Outside run with perfect running weather...overcast and 50 degrees! Went out nice and easy trying to keep the HR down. It stayed in 130's to low 140's for the first 3/4ths of a mile then started going up past 150. Mostly due to hills. I did a modified tempo run where I got my HR to tempo levels but the speed was nowhere near what it used to be. There is a hill coming down Douglas to Carmichael that I opened up on to feel a little speed. It felt great! I also felt some muscles in the lower abdomen area so I slowed down...
HR maxed out at 172 and averaged 155. Pace was 8:55 overall and here are the splits. 1-8:56 2-9:25 3-9:06 4-8:10 Next up Tomorrow short warm up jog and then elliptical for 30 minutes.
