#16 – 50 runs in 100 days – Summer edition

Tonite it was time for pulse based interval training again.

Realized during warmup that it was really windy so it would be very interesting.

First it was 2K warmup and after that the first interval for 2K and not going over 160. Windy from the very beginning made it tough the first 1/4 of the interval, was around 150 but then around the corner it was not that windy anymore and I could increase the pace and get up to 157-159.

Then time for 2 min rest when I walked and drank some water.

Time for the second interval for 2K, there is a hilly part but I managed to not get over 160.

2 min rest when I walked and drank some  water.

On the third interval something interesting happened, just in the beginning I realized  so that the pulse was already up to 183 ??? so I had to slow down  a lot, that has never happened but after that I got up to 157-159.

When I had my rest the pulse watch never beeped, got down to too low pulse, that’s the reason why I realized that something was not right so I decided to start the interval and would stop just before I would cross a car road, close to my home.

Then a short cool down that was actually less than 1K.

Distance: 10.79K, time: 1.12.19.8 h, average heart rate: 147, average pace: 6.42 min/k, max pace: 5.13 min/k, cadence: 170, VO2 Max: 35 ml/kg/min
