run

Bob: ran 7 miles at lunch with todd. 1h11:26, average 10:13 min/ mile. average hr 146 bpm. went slower in the beginning of run to avoid the warm up heart ratespike....I am still running the uphills really really slow to keep the hr below 150 (it creeps to 155 at times).

run

Marcy: ran short loop w/ add on pushing Sadie. 3.3 miles in 36 minutes, including stops to give sadie some snacks.
Bob: 4.5 miles at lunch w/ todd. 43:28, 9:40 min/ mile. hr ave 154 bpm. need to focus to keep cadance up at the slower speed, but higher cadence seems to bring heart rate up....

run

Bob: ran 6.2 miles at lunch with todd. average pace 9:39 min/ mile. I just ran at an easy pace today and did not really look at the heart rate monitor. hr averaged 154 bpm - higher that I would like for such an easy pace...hopefully this will improve with more time working in the lower hr zones. chirunning focus again "running on thin ice" and cadence.

7.4 mile run

We ran the same run (old short loop ~ 7.37 miles), keeping our heart rate close to 145 bpm:
Marcy: 1h:09:34, average 9:27 min/ mile, average hr 144
Bob: 1h14:43, average 10:07 min/ mile, average hr 145, chirunnung focus = running on thin ice

Overall Marcy's HR stayed steadier say on hills and at a 'faster' slow pace, which shows her aerobic base is better. Bob had trouble staying at 145 - hr droped to 135, then would speed up to 150....
