12-15-08 Body Comp 180 lbs 16.6% to 9.1% BF. It seems amazing that I weigh this much considering that fact that I never remember sitting down to eat much of anything. Maybe it was all the cookies or eating late or the extra cottage cheese that always seems to help with muscle recovery. Anyway I felt a little tight but strong and in spite of my previous post well rested. It is freezing cold out and icy so after getting the kids up, bathed, dressed, feed, beds made and on the bus I headed to the tree house. The goal today was to run easy as close as possible to 8 Min mile pace while watching breathing, form and pace to keep heart rate as low as possible. TM at TH at 1% incline total time 1:19:55 HR 144/150 so I would say mission accomplished although I would still like to see the HR average at 140 for the pace prior to Boston only 126 days to go. In this weather the heart would be more efficient out in the cold. The Gym gets pretty hot. |
