First Long Run of This Cycle

Duration = 1:39:33
Distance = 6.03
Calories = 711
Max HR = 142
Avg HR = 131
Running Index = 45
Max Cadence = 95
Avg Cadence = 84

Equipment: Asics Gel-Cumulus 9s, shorts, t-shirt

Warm-up: .25 mi @ 3.0 mph
Main: 5.5 mi with HR in 130-140 (Peak 4.2; finish 4.0)
Cool-down: .25 mi dropping from 3.5 to 2.0

This is actually the end of Week 1. The race next Monday will end Week 2 and the race on Sunday, June 6, will end Week3. Then, I will be back to a more normal schedule.

I dropped the speed to keep in the range, but I drew the line at 16:00/mile pace. There was a brief stop at the end of Mile 2 to swap clothes round in the laundry. Other than that, this was another steady run.

The rest of the week will include the drive to Colorado. I will be trying to run in the morning before I have breakfast and check out. I will run the Bolder Boulder on Memorial Day. I will have a bib with the names of three departed service members whom I have known. One passed a couple years ago, but I didn't hear about it until later. The other two were members of my current unit and died in the last couple of months after long illnesses.

Can't find your e-mail, just wanted to say thank you on behalf of the people whose gender *is* other. I have an academic friend who berates me for not knowing enough about humans.

Good luck at the Bolder Boulder on Monday. I love that you will be honoring the service members on your bib.
