          Hi, guys. Even with this cough, I ran 44 miles last week. Started prednisone on Saturday and it has helped me

          not feel like this asthma is never leaving.

              I'm kind of ignoring my HR right now outside (gasp!) as I cannot get it under control even though the effort feels nice and easy.  It is all that coughing.  Every time I cough, even the Fitbit puts me at above 100 HR instead of my normal 70 so I assume it will pass.  And the wind.

               

              Ran 7 last night at 10:30mm and 153 HR.  And that should have been at 142.  Oh, well.  At least the TM likes me and has me still at a good HR.

                      Hi, guys.  Did Pilates and 4 on Tuesday and they went OK.  Back on prednisone and finally feel like the cough is getting better.  Had a tough (meaning hard) Pilates workout yesterday and no running.

                          Hello everyone

                          ghosting the group for the last few weeks before jumping in yesterday with a request to Jimmy (kindly answered) about my MAF HR.

                           

                          Based on his advice I ran my long slow today as:

                           

                          16km (warmup 2km, warm down 1km);

                          HR averaged 139 (one spike at 152, but generally splits were around 140 - nightmare to manage keeping the HR down for the last few kms);

                          temperature was 30 degrees Celsius, humidity 90% (I live on the equator);

                          embarrassingly slow.

                           

                          The hardest thing is not to break out in a faster run but to keep going with fast tiny steps.  Not sure if anyone else might have experienced this - it's the hamstrings and soleus that feel it.  Used to training long slow strides, low cadence, without a heel strike.

                           

                          PS (hence the edit) - mouth closed, nose breathing only, and ran fasted (as for all runs).

                            Morning!  Had Pilates and 7 with 2 at MP.  The HR for the MP miles were 164 and 172 instead of 155.  I asked hubby about that.  He told me not to pay attention to HR while on prednisone because the higher blood levels will cause it to be super high.  Great.  I'll have to wing this marathon on Sunday, yay!

                              I thought Georgia was bad. There's always someone who has it worse. That would be you.
