So I'm sort of in taper mode for this weekend. It is strange to not do much. Today I had to do Helen at 80% effort, but.........I wanted to see what I could do compared to last time, so I pushed it a little more. It was a really good effort and it felt okay. My heartrate was in the 170s and final time was 11:19 and that takes into consideration the time it takes the treadmill to actually rev up to the pace you want to go. Last time I did this was Jan. 11th and my time was 11:36 so there's an improvement which I am happy about. I did a little extra 1/2 mile run and warmed up today with a 1000M row. It was quick, but I'm calling it a day.
