Reality Bites

227.2

44, not 42, now seems like an appropriate BtB target. This is my reality. I'll still need to work hard to get there. Today's workout was a good one:

11k total with 6 X 1K in 4:09 with 2:45 recovery.

The rule of thumb on this (VO2 Max) workout is to run the pieces between 5K and 3K race pace, which is the pace I ran. The workout felt pretty good, and my low back pain disappeared after the warm-up. My HR audits (at the 600m mark of each work piece) seemed low, although I was at 95% of Max during the last one. All in all a good workout.
