Rachel Phillips, October 2011
This was about three weeks before Rachel’s goal half marathon in 2011. It was just a standard fast-finish long run…but the run was reduced in distance as we were pulling back over the last 2-3 long runs. I’ll let you see her log notes for the rest of the details…
Sunday- 10.2.11
Easy, Long, HMP Workout: 12M w/ 8-11 @ HMP
- Surface: Sidewalks and Streets
- Total Time: 81:52 (6:53 AP)

- Comments: Very nice afternoon run with my husband! I was concerned that we ran the first part too steady for the HMP portion, but those 3M ended feeling great once I made the jump in pace and got settled. The last mile could easily have been kept at HMP, but no need to push buttons now!
