Ohhh That's What The Problem Was...

We bought a new scale yesterday.  This morning I weighted 0.8 pounds less on the new one than the old scale.

I have a lactate test this morning at 10 am.  This should be fun.  Basically I run full blast for about 50 minutes on a treadmill and my coach pricks my finger at certain intervals. Here is a good article on lactate testing.

  1. Thats pretty neat - what do you learn in the end? Do they give you a HR to maintain that is just below LT? Or is it something that just improves in time and you're just measuring to see the difference later?
