Another beautiful mourning for a run, I am loving this weather. I was planning on increasing my mileage this week but I think I will wait and see how the next few day's go. Standard 2 mile tempo run with 2 miles at marathon pace or close to that, I have this one stretch of road on this course that I alway's seem to get ran off the road by a stupid unattentive motorist. I am going to have to find another less busy road. My splits went as follows; warm up of 8:50, 8:45, then tempo at 7:54 & 7:32 which is some what slower than last week my legs were not feeling real great today. Then I did three cool down miles of  9:06, 9:07, 8:36,  total time was 59:54 with an average pace of 8:33. My Heart Rate maxed out at 152 on mile 4,  with an average of 143 for the run.

I checked my heart rate when I woke up this mourning and it was at 60 beats per minute which seems kind of high for a guy who is in decent shape and is not over weight. My weight is 163 pounds at 6.0" feet tall. I don't know if this should be a concern or not,  It seems it should be around 40 or 50 not 60 beats per minute, should I be concerned... I don't know. I will check it tomorrow to see if there is a difference.
