Race rehearsal input please

Did my first race rehearsal today and did my download as follows

 

45min @ my Z4 which is 167 -194 

 

download shows a TSS of 97.4, NP of 211 , Avg 175 with an IF of 1.1

 

to me this looks high for my NP but with my face on the dial my avg was ..... well average.

 

the run was hot and I'm still not sure what pacing to use. I did an RPE checking HR along the way neg split felt strong .

 

The Galloway running book suggests for every 5 degrees above 60 add 30 sec to your time. Patrick said Vdot is 3 sec per every 5 degrees.

That's all I know is it is hot, I didn't blow up, nutrition with these times really isn't an issue but I practiced it anyway no problems.

 

Anyone looking at these numbers see anything I should be concerned about feel free to hit me up.

 

Thx D

  • David, I think you did pretty well. Yes to the 3" per mile SWAG for every 5-degrees over 60...esp on race day.
