training run #52
Monday 17 August, 6.14am.
Weather cool, overcast, light showers.
Did a 14k run; 2x 5k laps and 1x 4k lap. Felt OK, tired towards end but not exhausted. Ate a gel just before the start and slowly drank a 500ml water all the way round.
Lap 1 – 34.22 (avg HR 138bpm)
Lap 2 – 32.45 (avg HR 139bpm)
Lap 3 – 26.26 (avg HR 140bpm)
Overall avg HR 139bpm, peak HR 157bpm. Strange that spike, happened around 1.5k HR just peaked and then dropped sharply, but not on a big hill or anything. Probably just too fast pace and reacting to a rain shower.
Pleased with the times and avg HR. Overall time 1 hr, 33 min, 33 secs.
