Hella Hot tempo

September 3, 2012 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: Hella Hot tempo

Comments:
Tempo today off site at the Tow path in Independence. Really hot. Warmed up 1.5 miles and then started into it. Barnes was really perching form and breathing today so I focused on that for most of the run. Tried just to stay tempo pace and under control for the run. The heart rate monitor really helps with that. Felt as smooth and good as possible.

We had a smaller pack this time. That was good cuz the trail was pretty narrow. Ran out 3.5 then back. I feel off a bit cuz my heart rate was getting high about mile 4-5ish. I guess I just needed a little bit of my rest becasue I was able to re catch the pack with heart rate under control. Ran with Ethan and David the rest of the way. Avg heart rate was a bit higher than last week but I actually measured a lower rate at the end of it (164). Solid effort in the heat. Forgot my flats though:(

Sounds like others had quality tempos as well. People seem to be doing well with the tempo concept as well. Good stuff today.
