I was making some comparisons for myself today and I noticed something from my own progress that might motivate/inspire you guys (if you need it!
). After 5 months of dedicated training, primarily structured around maximum aerobic function training runs with some personal customizations, my aerobic conditioning has improved significantly. Here are the first 5 miles of 2 runs. With the most recent run, I warmed up slowly to my max traning HR of 158, which I've found produces the fastest average times in my own case since a fast warmup (over less than 4 miles) will cause an early heart rate spike and my pace won't hold as strong. The data (Pace/Heart Rate):
October 8th, 2007
: Mile 1: 10:24/148 Mile 2: 10:55/149 Mile 3: 11:26/150 Mile 4: 11:05/153 Mile 5: 11:10/158
February 7th, 2008
: Mile 1: 7:45/143 Mile 2: 7:41/146 Mile 3: 7:26/150 Mile 4: 7:13/154 Mile 5: 7:06/158
