headed out to do 5 miles before the pre meet started. love love love running at dark in the trails with headlamps. and it has been so nice and cool in the mornings. my favorite time to run.
ran with a group of about 5. pace was super chill to keep my heart rate below 150. this was sooooo hard bc i wanted to just go with the weather so nice. but since we were doing an 8k while the xc meet was i just sat back and chilled. Plus night time roots and watching your feet so dont slip and fall which one of the girls did twice. ouch.
the first 5 miles was
11:52 pace
avg HR 77% 142
Max 96% 177
TE 3.3
58.21 minutes total.
then the next 5 was at the Millers Landing 8k. I turned my pace off and only had my HR that I could see and my husband ran with me to make sure I didnt allow the "race" to get me. Since DR said no racing. this was a fair compromise. 69 degrees 60 % humidity. PERFECT running weather.
2nd 5 miles
9:15 pace
46:01 minutes total
avg hr 94% 173 (i tried to keep at 170)
max HR 101% 186 (which i slowed down immediately and it came back down)
felt really good. still dont think it needs to be this high but oh well. will find out soon.
TE 5.0
