Description: Slow and easy training run.
Route: Out through Dumbo, then out to Redhook and back
Pace: 9:34 min/mile = Painfully slow, thus although I ran for an hour and fourteen mintues, (my 15k time), I only managed 7.74 miles
Heart rate average: 150 bpm (I finally got a new battery, so that's probably right). Ran in the zone of 144 to 155 but snuck up to 160 a couple of times. Never 'pushed it' - just nice and slow and easy.
Notes: I stopped a couple of times either to wait for a car, or to just enjoy the view. Also, instead of pushing through I stopped briefly to injest my gel at 38 minutes - which ended up right in the middle of my run.
I should get a water belt for these long runs or take money to buy some water at a bodega.
Health: my legs got heavy and a bit tight toward the end...this was a big week for me at 19.9 miles. Niggly little things in my right knee (very slight) and left anterior ankle (needs stretching).
