Got it, thanks! I am definitely working on listening to my body, I’m sure that will improve as time goes on. Thanks for the input!

Thanks Reed! That’s helpful. I have seem some of the other posts saying to go of of recovery time, I think part of my issue is being relatively untrained I’m not yet very attuned to what ‘being recovered’ means to me. I did a strength routine last night and feel soreness in my legs (not really my core or upper body though) – but I had some soreness the past few days before that anyway.
What would you consider ‘recovered’ – no soreness? Feeling like you can readily do the same workout again?

Sashi, thank you. I think I’m going to retry the test on a nearby track and see if that helps. I was monitoring my HR the entire run, but felt like I had to somewhat constantly adjust to bring it a bit up or down – I think a lot of those blips up and down are from short up or down hill bits, so perhaps a totally flat track will help me stay more consistent.

Thanks for the input!
