Now that you are 60 you have not pulled sub 7 as a lwt.ranger wrote:(snip)mikvan52 wrote:ranger assessment of standard training:

When you are 60, as I am, it looks as though you will have a hard time pullling sub-7.
But we were talking about training, not racing...
Specifically, UT training.
You have done some of this evidently
and could show it on your monitor with two pics like these:

Do you see the date referenced in each?
"Feb 24 2011"
Do you see the workout referenced? 20k.
Ostensibly your daily training.
Do you see the sub AT HR for me?
Yes, you do.
Show what you've done with similar screen shots instead of lame single stroke pictures.
Let's keep in mind the other parameter:
23 spm rate capped
Of interest: ranger claims he holds a 1:46 avg pace on such a workout (vs the rest of the aging male world who, ranger claims, are all much much slower)
Proof forthcoming?
There will be none ever.
