Easy running warm up/down 19:06 [2] 3.49 km (5:28 / km) +23m 5:18 / km
ahr:137 max:141 shoes: New Nikes

Ran from "home" to Avangard for a 3000 m test, to match what the De Anza group has been doing. It was a crisp Sunday morning/afternoon, just above freezing, with some noticeable vehicle exhaust hanging in the air. The park was full of people walking dogs and kids.

Race pace running (Test run) 11:47 [4] 3.0 km (3:56 / km)

And the test was quite slow. I felt having rogained.

About 18 years ago (somewhat sure) I ran 9:48 (quite sure) at this same place (not so sure, it might have been at the MGTU indoor track, and it may have been a 1600 m test run that I did in the early summer of 1990 at the Avangard, which, for the record, was 4:51). I was about 11 kg (kinda sure) lighter at the time.

It also seemed that they hadn't changed the track surface ever since.

Ran back.

I think the HRM altimeter fixed itself. I changed the transmitter battery earlier in the morning and then cleaned out the holes. After a period of wild swings the altitude reading stabilized. I then ran and wore the monitor over a sleeve, and the altitude readings were stable. It also read a temperature much closer to the truth.
