I ran 11 miles this morning in 1:26:06, with an average HR of 147. Again, my legs felt fine, but my heart was beating way faster than normal. With an average pace per mile of about 7:50 I would expect my average HR to be between 132-135 bpm depending on the day. Back when I was in better shape I would have expected to see 127-129 bpm.
Later on in the morning I was teaching my aquatic fitness class, and I had the opportunity to sit down for a bit as the students were exercising (normally I am on my feet the entire class, so this was out of the ordinary). I took the time to measure my HR three different times while sitting down, getting HR measurements of 70, 80, and 71 when measured for a full minute. When measuring my HR while sitting at my desk working I recorded a 74. Normally when I am sitting in class my HR is below 60 (I know, I am weird to measure my HR when I am supposed to be paying attention to my professors). Not sure what to make of this, but for the sake of keeping a record I am posting it.
Here are a few randomn pictures as well:
Kimia took this picture of the trail that I run on most every day while she was out running.
Anita has been practicing writing her name. The N needs some work, but otherwise she seems to be doing well. I also like how she kept switching up the colors.
