4/16 Run

At least I knew this one was going to be a slog, which made a big difference in my mental state. I kind of thought I was getting better though.

Not so much.

My heart rate after walking 2 blocks to the start point was 100. Which should have been a sign. :)

Biggest problem with a run outdoors, is that once you're halfway there, and you realize it's all gone sideways, you still have to get 'home'. LOTS of walk breaks

I'm a mouth breather as I type this and am about to find my Shower Soothers and then go to bed. Needless to say, no Friday run to make up mileage. :)

6.12miles in 1:19:18 (12:57/mile) @ 139 bpm

1 - 12:14 @ 139
2 - 12:57 @ 139
3 - 13:22 @ 139
4 - 13:39 @ 139
5 - 13:16 @ 139
6 - 12:31 @ 140
.12 - 10:45 @ 146 (I'll be danged if I'm stopping to walk for the last .12 miles!)

You still got the miles finished though even if there was more walking than you'd like. I laughed about the last 0.12 I think most runners feel that way!
