On Monday, Wed. and Friday, my son and I either hit the weight room or the fields out back of my house. Around the fields we have miles upon miles of running/biking trails. So today, The big Man decided to get the Rollers on and hit 1/4 mile sprint repeats. Because I can't keep up with him, I trail him on my bike carrying water and inspiration.
Here's what his vitals looked like
7x 1/4 mile haul butt sprints
Max Heart Rate: 185 bpm
Active Calories: 60
Total Calories: 77
Total distance including warm up and cool down: 3.41 miles
Average Pace: 6.3 Minute miles
Mile 1= 6.0
Mile 2=6.05
Mile 3=6.39
Total WORK time: 22 minutes and 40 seconds
Couple of cool points:
1. Heart rate recovery was almost IMMEDIATE
2. When I asked Hunter how he felt, he responded...ready?...."Dangerous!"
200 push ups are now being implemented at the time of this writing.
