Note

So I wore the 305 to be able to watch my heart rate and record splits, but obviously no satellite coverage indoors. Download the data in the usual fashion. The splits show up fine on Garmin Connect, but not on my download to AP. And while Garmin Connect accurately says there is no map data, when I click the little globe by each training entry, I find out I've been running in Menlo Park, California. Wow!

Also, just for future reference, seemed fine with no food/drink before running.

7 AM

track 12:47 intensity: (37 @1) + (3:26 @2) + (8:44 @3) 2.4 km (5:20 / km)
ahr:130 max:142 weight:142.5lbs shoes: x-talon 212

At the Smith indoor track -- it is now open to the public, just only from 6 to 8 am, so you have to get there by about 7. Real nice 200-meter track, not banked but wide curves and a pretty soft rubberized surface. Just a few walkers and a couple other runners and the walkers stay in the outside lanes.

A mile and a half warm-up

track 9:18 intensity: (9 @1) + (19 @2) + (3:41 @3) + (5:09 @4) 2.0 km (4:39 / km)
ahr:147 max:154 shoes: x-talon 212

So the plan was to do some running at about 7-minute pace (just under my current 5K pace), and to do it at a decent effort but not any more than that. For some reason I decided that that would be manageable doing 8 400s with just a 100 recovery jog.

After 4 of those with the times getting slower each time and the effort greater I decided a short break was needed, so I walked a lap....

400s (and 100s): 1:41, 35, 1:43, 35, 1:43, 36, 1:46, 34.

track 5:43 intensity: (9 @1) + (16 @2) + (3:08 @3) + (2:10 @4) 1.2 km (4:46 / km)
ahr:143 max:154 shoes: x-talon 212

And then changed the rest of the program to 200s, also with a 100 jog between, which felt much less stressful, but still achieved the purpose, which was just to get the legs turning a little faster.

50, 36, 50, 36, 50, 35, 48, 34

track 4:18 intensity: (7 @1) + (37 @2) + (3:34 @3) 0.8 km (5:22 / km)
ahr:134 max:140 shoes: x-talon 212

And a half-mile cool-down.
