Tonight was probably the last time until next December that I get to admire the lights outside the house as I finish a run. Tomorrow is #threekingsday and the #12thdayofchristmas, the end of the season. I experimented more with low heart rate running today and it continues to really challenge, and sometimes, frustrate me. Today I set the watch for Zone 2 and told myself if I went into Zone 3 for more than 30 seconds it would trigger a 30 second “walk penalty” to get the heart rate back down. It happened more times than I care to admit. As humbling as these runs are, they are essential to building endurance and teaching your body to use its energy efficiently. That said, I had more fun after the run, when I got to pick up the pace and do some striders. All told about 6.3 miles for the day. I’ve got an indoor track meet in Maryland on the schedule tomorrow, where I hope to get a benchmark mile time that I can use for the training that lies ahead. Then it’s time to get back home and hopefully get ready to watch a @philadelphiaeagles playoff win! #runblr #fitblr #winterrunning #offseasontraining #heartratetraining #sexypacerunning #striders #masterstrackandfield #masterstrackathlete (at Mantua, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsRTwGkB8M_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1s164qzf1b444

Good day at @hayfieldsecondaryschool this morning for the @athletics_east_masters_tc time trial event. Turnout was a little light, perhaps due to the rain overnight or the humid conditions this morning, and I was the only runner in the 5000. But some of my teammates jumped in for pieces and helped out with pacing. As the last photo shows, I ran a little more evenly this time and made a slight improvement. I just need to work on not falling apart in that 3rd mile! Happy with today’s result, looking forward to continued improvement! #runblr #5k #timetrial #masterstrackathlete #masterstrackandfield #summerrunning #summertraining #keepshowingup (at Hayfield Secondary School) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDW_4n8HBjx/?igshid=1ljmh3ihk89jb
