Didn't feel too bad afterward, and my average heart rate was 163 or so which was about 15 beats below my average when I ran in July, and this was about 1:30 faster. The weather was about perfect though, maybe a little on the cool side, would have been good to have running sleeves instead of running with a long sleeve shirt. Less sun though probably helped keep the heart rate down. I was also probably 5-7 pounds lighter than I was in July so that should have helped. Still need to drop about 20 more pounds, that should help get the time down more especially if I can hold on to muscle. I think what I am doing is working just a matter of grinding some more and putting work in.
