I had originally planned to go to a PCTR run at Nisene Marks, but could not find a ride and the prospect of getting out of the building at 4:10 am and taking four different buses and a cab wasn't particularly exciting. So, I slept in and went to Briones for a
BAOC event.
The event was a Scout-O, with regular courses which seemed mostly an afterthought. The
Blue was quite Orange. I had no problems and won. Didn't feel much of anything from last weekend's 50-miler.
My HR got sky-high, and stayed there; but, the effort felt easy, just like it would earlier at a HR about 7 bpm lower. I didn't partake in any substaces this morning, unlike on the morning of the
max-HR day, so maybe my maximum HR that increases with age is not a fluke.
Oh, and I slid a bit on the dry grass in road shoes. Can't wait for the Inov-8s to arrive.
