Daily Quote: "If you ever get a second chance in life for something, you've got to go all the way." -- Lance Armstrong
I was reading the New Las Vegas Marathon forum and discovered that due to construction projects, of which there are a huge number in Las Vegas right now, the courses for both the full and half marathons are a bit different this year than last. The new routes are up on the lvmarathon.com website. Sadly, we will not be running through the Fremont Street Experience this year, but us full marathoners will run through the new Fremont East entertainment district. We also won't go past the World Market Center this time, but the wind kicked up quite a bit of dust from the Union Park site next door to it last year anyway, so maybe that won't be such a loss.
Today is a Medium Long Run + Speed.
15 Miles. Time 2:15. Overall Pace, 9:00 minute miles. Life Fitness Treadmill set at a 1% grade. First 14 miles at 6.6 mph and the last mile was at marathon pace, 7.5 mph (8:00 minute per mile pace.) Average heart rate: 154 bpm. Cardiac Drift: 177 bpm. Cardiac drift was higher due to the last mile being at marathon pace. Will add another mile of marathon pace to my Medium Long Run next week.
