10 miles this morning in 1:19:06. Average HR of 132. HR started off lower this morning just as it was the last two days, but it did not stay that way. I felt tired this morning, and maybe that played a role, but I also left on my run later in the morning, and I have been wondering if my HR is naturally higher in the mid morning vs. early morning runs. I recorded average HR for a few segments of the run to track things. Early on in the run I averaged 132 bpm at 7:45 pace for 1.5 miles, followed by 132 bpm at 7:53 pace for 2.5 miles, followed by 133 bpm at 7:58 pace for 2 miles. Basically, I was keeping my HR at a similar level throughout the run, but I was progressively slowing down. Not a good thing. I will hope that I was just feeling tired. This was the first week where I have run 10 miles per day, and I have not been getting great sleep lately, so I guess I should have expected it.
Anita drew this picture today, with all of the members of the family "and lots of hearts". On the left are pictures of Kamran, and Shayon on the bottom, and Anita on the top. Her picture is bigger because according to her she is a big girl now. Kimia and I are pictured on the right (Kimia's picture has the longer hair).
