WX at 2 PM (18) Apr 22 51 (11) 46 (8) 30.30 (1026) NNW 5 RH 81
Odometer 14A: 86.8mi
Z4 with Z5 finish. Average/max heart rate = 163/179
I can only cite the Sandie Shaw bit for the reason why I was thinking of a song by Kirsty MacColl.
My goal today was to erg less than 44 minutes. I was successful, but it was pretty painful, and at the end, I was racing the guy who closes the gym. I didn't want to be left short of the 10,000m I was meaning to crank, and I got it in, only through going full bore where I was pulling as fast as 1:44. The session was consistent with others, where I started fairly strong, initially below 2:05/500m, then working to keep 2:10/500m. Beyond the 30-35min mark, I was trying hard to hold 2:13/500m as my heart rate started to go into the high 160s. The last 400m was a pure flat out sprint at max effort.
I got my 10,000m in, but I'll need to go easier tomorrow.
I miss my kids. That is all.
