Running tempo 47:09 8.11 km (5:49 / km) +3m 5:48 / km
ahr:140 max:182 shoes: Nike Pegasus Black
Decided yesterday to attempt a bit of tempo today doing 2x8min with a 4min jog. Heart was bad overnight and in the morning so I really didn't feel like going for a run but I find it difficult to back out of a planned session and I thought it might fix me up so I headed out anyway.
Felt tired from the beginning so I extended the warm up a bit but it didn't help. Heart rate seeming fairly normal for the first half of each effort before going a bit erratic and high as the pace dropped in the second half. Walked most of the recovery and checked my pulse manually which confirmed a skipped beat every 3 or 4 beats even when the heart rate was dropping right down.
Shouldn't have gone through with the session. Will try to be more willing to give up in future. Might try to stick to just running faster when I feel like it rather than trying to plan any harder sessions.

Wasn't going to run today but in the afternoon I really wanted to so I did. Felt heaps better from the start and had no trouble keeping up with Rachel's easy jog, even ran ahead at times because I felt like going faster. Still struggled on the steeper hills with the heart playing up briefly a few times. Enjoyed this run but can't believe how slow it was.

Very slow jog around Lake Seppings with some drills and strides at the end. Started out with Rachel, Rob and Damien but didn't keep up for long. Noticed every hill around the lake, bet nobody else did. Felt good doing the drills and strides despite the spongy grass. Heart dodgy on the walk home.

Given up on the idea that the 3 month break will have done my heart any good so I'm starting a bit of walk/jogging in preparation for training starting again properly on January 1. Last month has been by far the worst ever for my heart but today it was fine apart from the fact that it is not used to having to do any work.
Walked and jogged around the 5k loop, more walking in the first half (uphill) and jogging in the second half (downhill).
Gained 1.3kg yesterday despite having only one slice of ham and a little salad for lunch and nothing for dinner.
