Day 3-- The first Wednesday Run

In my plan, Wednesday's are quick tempo run days (shorter distance, faster then desired pace) in this case one minute faster then my hoped for marathon pace on race day.

Today's went well, I warmed up for a slow mile, reset the treadmill to zero and took off using a Galloway run/walk 4:1 strategy and a 6.2mph to 3.7mph on the treadmill to achieve my goal of 21:00 for 2 miles.

My max heart rate hit 151 briefly, but I was consistently in the low 140's in the second half of the workout. I also recovered quite quickly during the brief minute breaks down into the high 120's.
