Was going to do 10 outside tonight but it's raining hard
and windy. One good thing about tonight is I found out
I have a new max HR I hit 174. It was at the end of the run when
I cranked up the treadmill to 11 MPH to do it. Not sure if that
is my max but it's got to be close. My previous high was 171.
255 Miles for the month of March new record for me.

Great Run ran the pace we were shooting for. HR was kind of
up higher than I would like it but it is a challenging course.
I feel best when I can keep it at 155 or under and I was above
that the whole time. But I didn't feel all that tired and was
able to carry on a conversation with Brian.
Course was a bit short this year they cut out part of
the trail due to snow on it. Ran 3 before race warm up
and 3 after cool down total of 19 miles.
Time to start tapering for Boston. I'm ready for the taper
hopefully get myself healed up and rested.

De Pere (East)

10 Miles 1:13:11 7:19 average.
5:15 p.m. 30 degrees WINDY.
Tried to run this at 145-150 HR range did good.
Mile 1 7:40
Mile 2 7:17
Mile 3 7:19 HR 145
Mile 4 7:29 HR 147
Mile 5 7:37 HR 146

Mile 7 7:07 HR 146
Mile 8 7:02 HR 146
Mile 9 7:27 HR 146
Mile 10 6:53
Peak HR 152
Pace was up and down due to running into wind and
having a tail wind. Finally got to run on Fox River
Trail some. It was snow covered in sections. So I
couldn't run too much on it. It will get better soon.

Treadmill Run

6.5 Miles Treadmill 5:00 p.m.
Tried to run this at 130 HR or 70%
Mile 1 --- HR ---
Mile 2 8:31 HR 132
Mile 3 8:48 HR 132
Mile 4 9:02 HR 131
Mile 5 9:05 HR 131
Mile 6 9:06 HR 132
Mile 6.5 4:32 HR 131
One thing I noticed about this run I can't run the same pace
as outside at 130 HR and maybe it is due to running the day
after my long run. Friday I was more rested. So that would
explain the slower pace today and the treadmill is harder
for me. I will continue this experiment to see if I will
get more aerobic fit. Hopefully I will get faster at the same HR.
Time will tell.
62 Miles for the week. Record for me.
