Figured out my maximum heart rate today at the Y. 3 x 800's with final 400 HARD . . . .all of this with the incline at 5%.
I wish that I would have discovered running about 20 years ago.
Looked at 2012 The North Face Endurance Challenges. September in Madison. November in Kansas City. Both 50K. Found a 50K training plan today that would work . . .5 days a week Monday and Friday off. We shall see . . .
