Tough 5 miles

May 9th. Wednesday 

 

Moving time  = 55 minutes for five miles. Total elapsed time  = p64 minutes. I made a few you stops along the way to stretch and get directions when I got lost. I was running in the neighborhood next to a doctor’s office while I waited for Arlene to complete her appointment.  It was a pretty shaded neighborhood with all the roads named after trees. I eventually got confused with all the Forestry and had to stop for directions to get back to the doctor’s office. This was definitely a labored run right from the start. There is no way I would have completed this run if I was not waiting in a parking lot. It took every bit of discipline and perseverance that I have to keep going especially in the first two miles. Things got a little better as I passed the 25 minute mark. I was pretty shocked to learn after the run that I had actually covered five miles. And the time was better than I anticipated when I checked. I was also totally covered with sweat when I find her. I am happy that I managed to get more work done today than I had expected. I am not sure how high the toll will on my legs.,

Stats-

Foot indexes were better today.

Weight was 155 pounds

Sleep was about eight and a half hours

Missed morning heart rate again today. Have to start doing a better job.

Heart rate two and a half hours after run is 80 beats per minute. That seems pretty high.
