walk dog 1:01:31 [1] 3.5 mi (17:34 / mi) +95m 16:12 / mi
shoes: Merrill Barefoot Trail

J used somewhat of a better path that bypasses snail hill. Even thought it was cool out, J had several rest stops because he soaks up so much sun as 'solar puppy'.

Speed work intervals (quarters on grass) 52:04 intensity: (29 @1) + (6:45 @2) + (41:36 @3) + (3:14 @4) 5.69 mi (9:09 / mi) +45m 8:56 / mi
ahr:125 max:153 shoes: Merrill Barefoot Trail

Mapped out area at Park Rd. school which is around 1/4 mile to do intervals. This is the first 'speed' which wasn't really a fartlek - full 1/4 mile jog/walk in between.

Got down to an 5:22 pace quarter on my 5th (split 11). Worse was #2 (split 5), at 5:44 pace. I figured that once I finished 3 intervals, there would be no shame in falling apart on any after that, so they got better after that.

However, my GPS track when I zoom in is way off at times - has me running on the wrong side of a fence and even in the street at times. Measuring on gmaps-ped, the distance is more like .24-.25, which makes these closer to 6:00 pace...

This was a nice place to do these intervals - had a minor hill at about 250-300m in, but the ground was nice and soft. Felt a lot better than I had expected, as I had not gone full out like this in a long long time. It will be interesting how it feels tomorrow morning!

I'll need to reset my garmin for HR zones. Some of this has to be at 5.
