Hill Training with Kingwood Fit
We ran laps up and down the parking garage over in Kingwood. This is the one that is located just North of the river on the East side of West Lake Houston drive. Our group met their at 05:30. Here are the stats:
Duration: 00:44
Distance: 4.3 mi
Energy: 481 kcal
HeartRate: 135 bpm (avg), 169 bpm (max)
Pace: 9:30 min/mi (avg), 6.48 min/mi (max)
I weighed myself before and after and only lost about 3 oz of weight. This is with consuming about 21 oz of fluids. I crunched the numbers and it looks like a good hydration rate for me would be about 32 oz of fluid per hour, assuming that I’m working at about the same intensity and at the same temperature (about 88 degrees).
So about 4 cups of fluid per hour or one cup every 15 minutes.
I’m going to test that theory at my next run.
And now, for something completely different…
