45 mins cap

Today’s workout was:

• Run at a consistent pace —> time cap 45 minutes.

A daunting task. Asking a weightlifter to run more than a mile is a big ask, let alone 45 minutes. However, this is what I signed up for and I am determined to work and improve my endurance.

The run wasn’t bad at all until I hit the fourth mile. It was more mental than anything else.

Here are some stats:

I’m not entirely sure where my performance stands. Never ran this much before and not sure if this is an “average” performance - or whether I should’ve aimed for 5 miles in 45 minutes. Maybe moving forward this can be the baseline of my endurance running moving forward.
