xc classic skiing 1:42:02 [3]
ahr:152
Vo2 max intervals....
the plan was a simple one loop easy, one loop hard....with 2 min rest after the easy loop and 3 min rest after the hard loop
the hard was pretty hard....I reached 178 HR when my max is 183 or so...of course no one around me would know how much I was hurting, not like I am doing much more than just skiing along....incognito suffering.
still working on a bit of balance....but with no snow I have a solid start for ski prep for the season...

Run 20:00 [3]
ahr:137 max:163
Vo2 max intervals
Was planning to ski but they closed Elm creek to make snow....no problem, gotta keep working on my run...
10 x 2 min at 10:20@ 2% incline (9:40 pace equivalent) w/ 2 min walk recovery
10:00 walk warm up with 7 x :20 increasing run speed to get the knee going
HRA on 2 min interval segments...ending HR at 163 on 2nd to last interval

2:00 walk cool down
knee pain was a 3.5 most of the time after cortisone shot on Tuesday...ws hoping for 2.5 but it was a slight improvement...tolerable but I know I am protecting it a bit...
seems like progress on speed....not horrendously slow

Run 36:00 [3]
ahr:130 max:152
easy/"long" run....
trying to build up to a 1 hour easy continuous run.....that's the ultimate goal....
treadmill started running at 13:18/mile at 4% incline graduated to 13:57....due to it being to hard...HR trended to high for an easy run....I cant believe it but its the truth
I almost quit on the first run segment due to knee pain at a 4.5 spiking to 5 in moments....stayed with it and pain mellowed to a 4 and eventually a 3.5....I was having a good knee day and was surprised by this difficulty
warmed up with 10 min warm up uphill treadmill walk
9 x 4 min at 13:18-13:57 pace @ 4% incline w 1 min walk @20:00 pace @4%
4:00 ??? HRA/1 min walk
4:00 136 HRA/1 min walk
4:00 137 HRA/1 min walk
4:00 138 HRA/1 min walk
4:00 138 HRA/1 min walk
4:00 140 HRA/1 min walk
4:00 141 HRA/1 min walk
4:00 144 HRA/1 min walk
4:00 146 HRA/1 min walk (ran at 0% incline at 11:18 to 12:00 pace...kept backing it off due to high HR
6:00 127 cool down...HR still a bit high for an easy run...should be about 138 steady and average 132
concerned my HR and PE was so high at so slow a pace with a mild incline.....but what else can I do but stay with it....its hard to run my HR up on flat incline, if I run fast my knee starts to bark....but I also am very weak on hills....inclines really zap my leg muscles.....I am concerned by fitness has taken a hit with no/limited running.....and concerned if my ski speed has taken a hit...and I can afford to go much slower...
