Recovering

Daily Quote: "Your aerobic development is a gradual thing. It takes years and years of marathon-type training to develop your aerobic capacity to the fullest." --Arthur Lydiard

I slept for a total of 10 hours today! This is the most I've ever slept in a very long time, I must have really needed the sleep. My morning heart rate is still a little high, 50 bpm, therefore today will be a Recovery Run. I should be o.k. to run a tougher Middle-Long Run tomorrow with some marathon pace miles included.

Recovery Run.
6 miles. Time, 59:00. Pace, 9.50 minute miles. Life Fitness Treadmill on the cardio training mode setting where the elevation automatically changes to keep my heart rate at a constant 144 bpm (75% of maximum heart rate). Treadmill speed set at 6.1 mph. Elevation changes: 2.7 - 1.9 grades.
