Funny how I just posted about increasing the training volume. Guess I'll slow the ra... read more

Looked back at the elevation data. 1000' of climbing. No wonder my average speed is so slow. Got to get stronger.

Thanks, Dana. I've been HR training for a few years. I'm passed the slow ya down phase. I think it's just an age thing but I won't quit trying to get faster. Maybe I was just a bit tired from a hard couple months of travel.

Good job on getting these miles in. I've had a time getting my mileage back up since my marathon on April 7. It takes time. Can't force it or else injuries could occur.

Doesn't take much to make a run feel like this. but then again it doesn't take much to do the complete opposite too.
