Tuesday - Sept. 22

Recumbent Bike
 - 40 minutes
 - level 8/20
 - distance 9.69
 - 121 aveHR
 - 128 maxHR

Road Run
 - 4 miles

 - 140 aveHR
 - 154 maxHR

Neck exercises

Seated Calf Raise

Testing my mental patience to run so slow but I am happy to stay under 145 (and even into the 120s on downhills) at a trotting pace.  Before this HR would be a walk.  Excited to see if I can get down to 8-9 min/mile pace at this HR.

Are you using the Maffetone 180 HR minus your age or still doing the New Alpinism HR formula and percentages? They are pretty close anyway - just curious?

Using the Maffetone 180 minus age, which gives me 144 as my aerobic threshold. I do fell like it has greatly improved my aerobic health and look to continue through the winter.
