PM: Paced Elia in a max heart-rate test. I've done this a couple of times- I'm still not sure the best method. Just to document, we had a full warmup, 2 miles at 120-130 heart rate, 3 minute break, 1600 tempo with a heartate in the 130-140 range (I was monitoring and pacing), and then 1 lap hard bringining the heart rate and effort into the 150-160 range, followed by the final lap at max effort where he hit 182 (181 registered). I still think hills would be a better interpreter, but there are just too few long hills/bridges in FL to make it worthwhile and I am weary of treadmills/falling due to the max effort.
