Tired legs and such.
Aim: Overdistance run maintiained in Zone 1
Originally planed as a 2 hour/18Km run, I changed my route early on as tired legs fatigued feeling and overly fast heart rate were all pointing to the fact that a 2 hour run would not go well and I was feeling the effects of ramping up my training since the start of April.
Total Time (h:m:s) 1:41:20 6:53 pace
Moving Time (h:m:s) 1:38:27 6:41 pace
Distance (km) 14.70
Moving Speed (kph) 9.0 avg. 13.3 max.
Elevation Gain (m) +161 / -162
Avg. Heart Rate 146 bpm Zone 1.9
Temperature (C) 17C avg. 19C high
The hot day made for a bit of extra effort also. The run was at a slower pace then the one at Kimbolten but also stayed in the desired heart rate zone. Less fatigued I think that my Zone 1 pace will be quicker. Still a 14.7Km run is still a decent effort. I was also right to shorten my route as I was cream-crackered when I finished (even at this sedate pace)

There was a little too much road work in this alternate route, but it was an ad-hoc selection, so not a surprize it was not ideal. On another note, what a fantastic day weather wise, I really need to sort out a decent camera to pack on these runs.
