Running for metcon

Ran 2.32 miles in 20 minutes. That is an 8:37 pace.



Started with a warm up of about 4 minutes in a 135 heart rate zone. Sped up to about 145-155. Finished with a big part of the run around 165, which seems to be a good zone right now.



In the future, should warm up and then run 20 minutes in the 165 zone.



The age based formula would put my maximum heart rate at 170. This is clearly too low and isn't accurate for me.


To do: Research method for calculating maximum heart rate and calculate mine.
