7.17.11

Running day. Did a "Speed" workout: 4 miles. 2x1mi@8:13 w/ .5 mi jogs. Didn't handle it as well as a few months ago when I was only running and doing a little strength training. Still glad to be able to run 4-5 miles at a shot though and can work up from here. Weird though. My max heart rate seems to be dropping. At the end of the second "fast" mile felt like my cardiac was the restraining part, and my heart rate was only 144. A few months ago I could run for 30-45 minutes with a heart rate of 154 or more. Hmmmm.
