today was long run day. i repeated my 15mile run at town lake again this week. it was quite cold so the ground felt like concrete. my knees are really sore tonight. this week i wore the HR monitor to get a reading on my long runs. total time was 1:55 with an avg HR of 133. first lap was 38:45 w/ HR of 129, 2nd was 39:00 w/ HR of 133 and 3rd was 37:35 w/ HR 138. The legs felt good on the 3rd 5mile lap and i picked up the pace near the end (could be why my right knee cap is sore). I will either repeat this again next week or possibly add 1-2 miles.
