Lakeside Threshold

After yesterday's easy mileage and no significant stress since Tuesday I figured it would be a good day to add some threshold work to the week. I woke up and felt good right from the start. After warming up for 2.5 miles at 7:30 pace I worked into the workout and it looked like this:

2.5 miles warm up 19:00
2 miles LT pace (currently 5:45) 11:34/ 5:46 pace HR: 161
4 minutes easy 
2 miles LT pace  11:35/ 5:47 pace HR: 159
2.6 miles warm down

*interesting how HR eased off a bit the second repeat. I found the pace easy to hold so maybe just needed to work into it a bit. (Workout in lakeside to hwy 61 and london rd.)

Totals: 1:07:20  9.7 miles
