Lactate Building at the DH
All The Dawg House BackblastsAugust 31st, 2017
YHC looked to switch up our normal cruise to close out the month of August. It seems and feels like the Dawg House guys have been slowly ratcheting up the intensity all month ever since some men decided to sign up for fall half marathons. Towards the end of the weeks I think we are all feeling sore and beat-down, especially after the #200 SSH performance yesterday.
The idea for the run was a tempo run, or a run at 8/10 exertion level for a sustained 25 minutes to help work on lactic acid threshold and endurance. Once we re-explained the concept of lactate to our elder statesman we were off. We ran not quite as hard as Tuesday’s fartleks but for a longer interval.
All seemed to have no trouble at all with the route. Hop-hunter and 4-wide led the pack as usual with a very strong performance from everyone including FNG Jason who found us on Nextdoor.
- Prayers for 4-wide’s coworker
- Praise for Dial-ups daughter and YHC’s 2.1 to be
- Welcome to FNG Jason
- Extra credit workout at Yellowcake’s house tonight. See Slack for details.
