Early morning run/jog at ARSHS. It has been a long time since I've gotten up at 5:15 a.m. to go running and haven't done that since the time change. Surprisingly, it wasn't so bad. I felt good this morning. I made up my  mind to run slower than I normally do to have a nice relaxing slow run and not over do (I've been learning tips like this to help with training and prevent injuries). Clear skies out and the birds were chirping nice early to keep me company.

TT: 35:30 min.  HR before: 68 bpm   HR after: 152 bpm

Avg: 8:52 min  145 bpm   Max: 7:30 min   171 bpm

Laps: 8:36, 8:55, 9:02, 8:56  (a lot slower than usual but felt relaxing to go slower this time)

way to go! And way to try to slow it up to decrease injury!

Thanks, yeah I think it is a good and safe way to go about it.
