When I was running like that the Cardio said my resting heart rate was 32 BPM. The lowest they had ever seen though they see people with heart conditions so I am not surprised. I also have an abnormally large heart with out of proportion chambers so I am needing to go get it rechecked. They said every year and it has been 7 so it is time. I am 32 with a 1 hour commute each way and 3 kids. My goals should be achievable with minimal interruption to the family schedule. Towards the end I will ratchet it up. I need to so I can be sure my back will hold it. Nothing would be worse than putting down a moose and having a back spasm while out there trying to get it back to camp.
If I can help anyone stuck in a rut or with any training nutrition advice please pm me. If I don't have the answer I will get it for you. I have been out of the training world a few years but it used to be my life 7 days a week for a lot of years.
