Either my watch had a few hiccups during my run or I had a heart attack. Around the two mile mark I checked it and it said my heart rate was in the 190s, which shouldn't even be possible based on the 220 minus your age method of calculating maximum heart rate. It seemed to stabilize after a few minutes in the 140s, but it was very surprising seeing a HR higher than any of my summer track workouts!

Should've taken this outside. Not sure why I didn't. 6 x 3 min on/2 min off. Goal around 6:11 to 6:30 pace. Completed the workout, but just barely. Did first 2 reps at 6:11, then next 3 reps at 6:24, then last rep at 6:30. The gym was way too hot for a workout. Oh well. Onward.

Had to modify the course a bit due to snow; i.e. running down 72nd Street and jumping in the snow when a car approaches. Hip really sore from taekwondo but got better during the run.

I hope that everyone who wanted to get in to the Lincoln Marathon/Half got in. I'm passing on it again this year. But I did just register for my fall marathon--the "Northern Ohio Marathon" in Mentor, OH (greater Cleveland area) in early October. (And yes I plan my races a year in advance). Really excited about it for a few reasons: it is a small race, flat course, partially alongside Lake Erie, awesome reviews and lots of time to train for it following Boston. Planning to make it my goal race of 2016 :)

Procrastinated as much as possible before heading out. Started with lots of energy and ended with none. Coming home the wind was brutal. I'm in such a slump. The little speed I did have is MIA. Frustrated. My Grandma's "thanks for registering early" jacket came last week. I'm scared to even look at it. I just don't want to royally F this up.

Happy Tuesday.

Honestly haven't done anything since Nov. 7th MTB with wassE.

Watched #MountEverest movie recently, true story. It's really truly insanely amazingly crazy when you contrast what these folks are doing.

"Base camp" is at 17,700 ft, the Summit is 29,028 ft...takes approx 2 months to climb, to contrast Leadville 100 "highest" elevation is 12,400 ft.

Could you handle a climb up Mount Everest?
