1 mile time trial

RUN: 4 miles in 35 mins. 1 mile TT on the track: 6:27. Ave HR 158.

Is that HR monitor working? I was ready to throw up by the end of that run! Awesome, right? To run yourself into the ground in just 6.5 minutes--that's fun! A more detailed look at the HR shows that my initial HR was in the 80's, and then I sustained a 150's HR for the most part until the end where I peaked at 172bpm. That was probably the part I thought I would throw up.

My previous mile PR was 6:23. With all the base training, long weekends, etc, I'm pretty happy with today's run. I gave it all I had, to the point where I had no kick at the end.

Only problem--my right shin is hurting. About halfway up right on the front bone, very focal. Hopefully not a stress fracture! Ice!

All the talk tonight was about Kansas. And one club member who was also at Redman was asking if I was hydrating for this race. LOL, not many people can get away with that joke, but he can :) He's right, I need to be hydrating!
