Next year I've set myself a personal challenge to run a marathon. Which one, I'm yet to decide but training has to start at some point and what better time than now. To give myself an incentive I went out and spent far too much money on a fancy new watch and heart rate monitor. Bring it on!! #garmin620 #forerunner620 #running #marathon
Monday afternoon reality run
Monday AFTERNOON run. The ambition that I had to run last night or early this morning was quashed because of my procrastination in homework. I stayed up until about 11pm to write three papers for my schooling, so no run last night. Then my intention was to get up at 4:45 or 5am and go for my run then. 0445 rolled around and I shut off that alarm then 0500 rolled around and I shut that alarm off and got back under the covers for a 0530 wake up call. This reminds me of a motivational video that I have made into an alarm gone that I’ll try to find to post here. Regardless after I got home from work I went out for a 3 mile loop around my local lake and I sit here post-run by 10 minutes cooling down and feeling great. The recovery advisor on the Garmin said I wouldn’t be recovered until 10pm tonight but I decided to not be hindered by this gimmick. My heart date average according to be strap was 160 bp which of course is a bit high and Garmin’s training advisors says that my heart rate was in the over reaching zone. I don’t know if this is completely accurate yet and I am hoping that the kinks work out and it gets smarter or maybe it is my body and it adapts quickly enough. That being said Garmin 620 said my VO2 Max change from 32 to a 39. Which makes me extremely happy because I was bummed that my VO2 Max was so low and I thought that I was forever doomed by that low number to be a poor performer. So there is hope that I will become super super fast if I just stick too it. I’m sure a lot of my speed improvement could be increased if I lost about 50 pounds…here’s to eating better and losing some serious poundage before the January resolutions cloudy everyone’s judgement.
