Club event at Buhot Ck. Nice day and didn't really go in with a plan and it ended up being a bit of a lazy one, with a few small errors, because I didn't read the detail in the circle or exited controls badly, and a 1 minute error when I ran right past one. Didn't feel very strong in the terrain either - there's lots of thick spongy grass and it just seemed to sap my strength. It was fun to finally do a run with GPS, however it seems that Movescount filters the track. I did an export for Quickroute and the GPX file doesn't have a point for every second as expected. I'll have to check whether Sportstrack can download complete data from the Ambit.

Up at the reservoir after deciding that intervals were better than the easy 30min I had planned. Felt fast, probably the quickest overall Mona's I've done, which is good for the confidence.

Ran home from work. I ditched most of my gear in the office so had a pretty light bag and just tried to cruise all the way. It was interesting keeping an eye on my HR. 170 BPM is a steady but easy effort, not breathing much, even 175 doesn't feel like much but at 180 I'm working hard. Perhaps it should feel hard given that 180 is 93% of my max HR. And maybe my anaerobic threshold is around that HR.

* I just realised I hadn't changed my fitness level setting in Movescount as I thought I had, which may explain why this is so high.

3 x 2km in the shadows at UQ. Started pretty strong but faded a bit in the third. It never helps running by yourself - I missed the official session with Mat and James at 6pm. Left calf tightened a bit and potentially a bit of soreness.

I pressed the wrong button on my watch for the first int and paused the watch instead of recording a lap, so the EPOC is extrapolated from laps two and three and I've no idea of the real PTE.
