Son got sick the weekend before this weekend and it cause a planned hour run on Monday to be a rest day. Basically swapping rest days.
Lost a Tues workout day this week. Will have to try to try to make it up with some intensity in other runs this week.
Wed’s target HR BPM 135-145 as my MAF range, but now thinking I can use 154-164.
