Noon: 11.3 miles in 1:31 on the treadmill. HR 155.

22’ Tempo @ 10-Mile Effort + 6 x 45” Strides

Decided to do this one on the treadmill again due to weather and for consistency. Warm up 30’ as I did last week with 20’ slow and 10’ progressing to workout speed. It seems to work well. Started at 9.5 and held that for most of it but bumped it up over the last 8’ going through the top of the 9MPH range and finishing the last 2’ @ 10.3. 5’ jog, then 6 x 45” strides starting at 10.6 and finishing the last one @ 11MPH. 20’ cool down. This was a solid workout. HR 177 for the tempo, so maybe slightly high for the prescription, but close.

PM: 35’ shakeout. HR 140.

Hot out.

Nice job Jason.

Thanks, Bret. The combination of monitoring HR during the run and the treadmill is working well in less favorable weather conditions.
