got those 400's in the book...

Thursday evening:

Week number two had scheduled intervals on the 12 week Hal Advanced half marathon training program as 7 by 400 meter intervals with 90 seconds (or a 10th of a mile) of recovery time in between each one. I ran these at the health club due to weather and ran a 2 mile warm-up on the indoor track and then went down to the treadmills for the 400 intervals…below are my repeats time with average & max HR per each:

1:42 – AHR 150bpm – MHR 156bpm
1:40 – AHR 144bpm – MHR 156bpm
1:42 – AHR 146bpm – MHR 156bpm
1:41 – AHR 149bpm – MHR 157bpm
1:40 – AHR 144bpm – MHR 156bpm
1:42 – AHR 146bpm – MHR 157bpm
1:39 – AHR 147bpm – MHR 157bpm

Ran a cool-down mile afterwards on the track as it was quite warm & humid in the field house tonight. My times at this point still aren’t where they need to be especially running them on a treadmill. I covered a total of 5.6 miles in 50:03 with an average HR of 131bpm…another good run in the books :-)
