10K

Ran the West Hartford reservoir 5K course at an easy pace, got to the end, turned around and ran it back to the start.

10K Time: 1:14:58 5K Split - 36:20
Heart Rate: 136

Feel pretty good. That is the longest I have run. I ran it without water. I was drenched with sweat by the end, but felt okay.

The weather was cool, slightly humid.

My heart rate went up to 144 on most inclines, although on one steep one it hit 150.

If I had run this time in the Bradley 10K, I would have come in last, but if this had been a race, I would have run quite a bit faster.

I was most pleased with the ability to keep the heart rate in the 130's.
