MaxVo2 One Mile Walk Test

 Had a cancellation today and was feeling VERY spry; NO residual anything from yesterday's presses. Pretty amazing actually

Last time I did this was Feb 1 2024 so almost a year to the month. I wrote that I did 13:31 for the two lap mile with a HR of 155 ( hand counted) after ten seconds. I wrote that gave me a max vo2 of 41 but that doesn't seem right

Warmed up with a  1/2 mile at 6 min half mile or so so I had hopes for a 13 min mile and a lower HR

Used the stopwatch on the apple watch to time the first half mile then turned it off. BUT when I started the test the aver pace was already too high. I just kept watching the stopwatch but it distracted me thinking it wasn't right

Passed the first lap in 6 :30 pace so I thought I was golden but when I hit the second lap that I started it said I still had .04 to go or something!

It  didn't register the mile til I got back to where I started     THE WARMUP 

ACK

But based on two laps

13:15 mile

HR at finish 130

Max vo2 score 36.2

Rating Excellent

VERY close to a superior rating

Oh I also wore my old Go Rucks but I'm not used to them. Let anterior tib started tightening up 1/4 mile in: not used to this pace but I still gutted it out

Next time: normal ruck boots
                  don't use stopwatch to time warmup

                 GO FASTER
