Comments: Remembered my Garmin HRM-Pro Plus Heart Rate Monitor ✅
Any irregular feelings, aches, pains, heart rate, and so forth?: Bit tired
Foods eaten today: Cross-training day. Listened to an audiobook. Felt fairly recovered so exercised more vigorously than on Monday. Set the seat to position #20 (felt a bit overextended using #22). Read on Wednesday about race pace training. For mile repeats (on select Sundays), Galloway suggests running at a 10'15"/mile pace for a 4:40 marathon goal, with intervals = run 2:30/walk 30s. He writes "This prepares you for the pace you'll be running between walk breaks in the marathon." Mile repeats are defined as "measured segments run at a pace slightly faster than marathon goal pace and followed by a rest interval." Continuing: "Each mile should be run ~30 seconds faster than you want to run in the race itself...." Galloway also notes for relaxing between mile repeats: "If you have a heart rate monitor, keep walking until the heart rate goes below 70 percent of your maximum heart rate." For marathon pace running on weekday maintenance sessions, Galloway suggests running 1-3 miles at 10'50"/mile pace, with run 2:30/walk 1 minute. I think here he means "complete each mile in 10:50" rather than "run at 10:15/mile pace between walk breaks". In both I think the end result is the same--to finish in 4 hours and 40 minutes, it requires a 10:40-10:50/mile pace. Galloway suggests slowing down "30 seconds per mile for every 5-degree increase above 60 °F. E.g., today was 75 °F, so instead of 10'40"/mile, I might run 90 seconds slower, or 12'10"/mile pace. Bottom-line: weather and recovery permitting, run at 10'15"/mile pace during training. This gets me used to 4:40 race pace. And if too tough, will need to adjust. Spent time this afternoon reading about the Paavo Nurmi Marathon in Hurley, Wisconsin. I have a conflict this year, but perhaps I can run it next August if health and work allows.
Any irregular feelings, aches, pains, heart rate, and so forth?: Left leg slightly sore
