endurance--short road run; SAR

CR314 at lunch. Time 52:10. Avg HR 154. Again, a higher HR than expected for the pace. May have some bogus HR data in here. It seems like there is a spot near the beginning/end near the power lines where it spikes mysteriously. Felt good though.

About 8:30pm got an SAR call and spent most of the night thrashing around on a wild goose chase for a supposed airplane crash that didn't exist. Got in some steep bushwhacking and sleep deprivation.

3 rounds (15 total reps).

Sunday, April 01, 2007

endurance--long trail run

Horse Gulch area. Total time 2:10. Avg HR 137. 1570 ft climb per the Suunto.

First run over 2 hours in a long time. Good part: my foot and knee felt fine. Bad part: it was tough to keep my heart rate low. I had to do a lot of walking on the uphills to stay <150.
