My threshold pulse is 163<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The layup is the following:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">2K warm up<br \/>\n4x2K intervals with 2 min rest between<br \/>\n1K cool down<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">A bit chillier today around 14oC (57F). Started with 2K warm up and then it was time for the first brutal interval. Rested (stood still) for 2 min where I drank some water and tightened my energy belt.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">On the second interval I have notice that during the running on a bike path which is gradually increasing in altitude that I also increase the pace and got to 163 so then I had to run a bit &#8221;slower&#8221; to get back to 160 where I try to be during the intervals. Rested (stood still) for 2 min, drank some water and got the pulse down.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">I have been lucky so far, on the third interval I am crossing a car road and this time a car came so I had to do a short detour and the pulse went down to 156. Take some time to get back to 160, the same if I get to 163 and have to get back to 160. At the end of the interval I ran into a heavier upwind and the pace got to 156 for a short moment, felt a bit more tired here as well. Rested (stood still) for 2 min, drank some water,<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Finally the last interval where I also at some point got up to 163.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">I handled the increasing pace much better this time, last time I got to 165 which is above my threshold pulse, this time my highest pulse was 163. Now I feel in my breathing when I am on my way to 161-163.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Ended with 1K cool down.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Intervals is not my favorite running training, it is the most brutal thing I can do to myself but I know what it will give at the end so there is a purpose and I am improving during my other runs. Maybe this interval training has something to do with it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/gabbychallenge.glundh.se\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/results_150907.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2892\" src=\"http:\/\/gabbychallenge.glundh.se\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/results_150907-300x174.png\" alt=\"results_150907\" width=\"300\" height=\"174\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/gabbychallenge.glundh.se\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/heart_rate_150907.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2891\" src=\"http:\/\/gabbychallenge.glundh.se\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/heart_rate_150907-300x123.png\" alt=\"heart_rate_150907\" width=\"300\" height=\"123\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/gabbychallenge.glundh.se\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/pace_150907.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2894\" src=\"http:\/\/gabbychallenge.glundh.se\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/pace_150907-300x123.png\" alt=\"pace_150907\" width=\"300\" height=\"123\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/gabbychallenge.glundh.se\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/heart_pace_150907.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2890\" src=\"http:\/\/gabbychallenge.glundh.se\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/heart_pace_150907-300x122.png\" alt=\"heart_pace_150907\" width=\"300\" height=\"122\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Distance: 6.88 miles (11.07K), time: 1.06.40 h, average pace: 6.01 min\/k, max pace: 3.53 min\/k,<br \/>\ncadence: 188, VO2 Max: 28 ml\/kg\/min<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>#39 &#8211; 50 runs in 100 days summer edition #96 &#8211; 100 Days Of Miles Challenge Today it was again to do pulse based interval training where\u00a0 am a couple of heart beats under my threshold pulse during the intervals.
