Hi Ed,
Did an hour easy tonight:
60:39
9.6KM (6:17/KM)
Average 147BPM
Found it quite difficult to stay in the prescribed pulse range, as the route is quite hilly and so had to try and balance the uphill vs downhill pulses. Every time I saw I was straying into the low 150's, I made sure I dropped down to 145BPM before going again. Felt fine for the first 55 minutes, but then my left hip started going a little stiff, and I then got a little stitch at about 58 minutes, but both had disappeared by the end of the run. Barely broke a sweat doing the run though, so not feeling tired afterwards.
Where do we stand for sessions across tomorrow/the weekend?
