Time Trial

The replacement  heart rate monitor strap and transmitter came in this morning's mail from HTA Melbourne so I was able to use it for today's time trial.

Program:

8km run @ MT pace (i.e.6:38 min/km)

I ran along Old South Road, starting late at around 12:15pm, 4km out & 4k back.  Fairly flat but some long inclines made for harder running on the return 4km. 

Very overcast day and humid;  maybe a storm approaching.  Here are the results:

4km out in 26:28
Laps = 7:07; 6:32;  6:26;  6:17
AHR 74%;  MHR 83%
Avg. Pace 6:35 min/km


4km return in 28:16
Laps = 6:29;  7:06;  7:30;  7:08
AHR 79%;  MHR 86%
Avg Pace 7:03 min/km


2km Recovery walk


Total = 10km
