The fitness center at work was hosting an event dubbed the 4
x 6 relay. It was a 1.5 mile course with
teams of 4. In the interest of time, it
was a staggered start rather than a relay with a baton. The first runners started. 2 minutes later the second runners started,
etc.
The course started downhill and then turned uphill before
flattening out and then a short uphill at the finish. I was shooting for a 12:00 time, but was
thrilled to finish in 11:14. However, my
Garmin did measure the course at 1.43 miles.
There were some fast finisher including a couple of guys in
the 9:30 range and a half dozen in the 10:00 to 10:30 range.
I looked at my heart rate during the event and noticed it
spiking over 200 beats per minute. I am
fairly certain that was an anomaly, although I do believe my finish line heart
rate of 184.

That sounds like a cool event hosted by your work's fitness center! I wish we had a fitness center period!
Looks like I'm right up the street from you (off of McCaslin). We should get a run in some time in the future!
I have been thinking of going to the Runners Roost group run sometime. Have you been over there?
