Well, yes, I did buy a jump rope and tried incorporating it in……but that’s a discussion for another time. So, yesterday, I tried power walking. Was able to do 3 miles at a sub 3hr half marathon pace. So that was interesting. Sub 3hrs is the goal. If I can do the half before my 65th that will be that, done. No sense in dragging this thing out, really. We’ll see how far we can get next year.
Today I did 1/4 mile intervals with a 2min cooldown in between. I was shooting for a 12min/mile pace (3min 440). Wound up doing between 10 and 11min/mile paces. All depending on if I was going a little up hill or down hill. Oddly enough Nebraska isn’t flat. I did 6 intervals total, so 3 each way and was very constant on each one. Quite happy with that. And then finished with a power walk 1/2 mile. Much respect for the race walkers, it isn’t easy. Anyway, that’s it for this week. Rest day tomorrow. Thanks for checking in and may God bless.
