    Resting HR back to normal today. Thought I'd take it easy, so I just did 35 minutes. HR dictated some walking to keep at my HR plan. Body feels good though. I'm going to do more walking than running the rest of the week. This has been one crazy trip this year.

          Rest day. 5k tomorrow

          Got the urge to run, but for now I'm staying in the run/rest/run/rest cycle. Don't want to take any chances. Feeling quite strong and RHR staying in the 46-47 range. Might sneak in some crosstraining.
          Have a great 5k, Clay..hey that rhymes!..don't get me started.

            3 miles.  Breaking in the Nike Free 5.0s this week.  No complaints after two 3 milers.  Had a mild case of PF (I think) for the last 3-4 months.  Running a lot on trails lately seems to have healed it for the most part.   I also got a good neutral trail shoe and ditched the Superfeet greens.  The Montrail Hardrock '09 trail shoes are so comfortable and light that I'm considering running my marathon in them. I'm now convinced that the shoe/Superfeet combination I was using contributed to the problem in the first place.

              Not running much the past two weeks--stomach pains last week led to five days of no exercise.  Running about every other day since then but no longer runs.  Bike commuted three days this week (including today).  Hope to run both days this weekend.

                P.S. Michael Jackson was at his greatest in the Jackson Five, and was good thru Thriller. After that...I'm not really sure what all that was, but it wasn't the picture of a mentally stable person.

                          Outlaw,

                          That's not much of a "spike" in heart rate - I don't think you need to concern yourself too much with it. Going uphill always makes my heart rate go up - I used to not let it go above MAF even when going up a hill; I was completely strict for several months. The question is if it does you any good to stay below MAF at all times year round? What is one trying to accomplish?

                          I don't mean to break your self-dicipline with this question. I do think there is benefit to training at low heart rates and to periodically stay completely below MAF at all times.

                              So I am getting some sub 7mm time in on my downhills now.  I have not seen times that fast since HS.  What does that mean?  The flat parts are at 11-12mm as the heat is up.  My next marathon could be interesting. 

                              I'm touching your pants.
