Current stats

• Basics: 26F, 5'1, 93lbs
• RHR: 50-60 bpm daytime avg, 43-48 bpm night
• VO2max: 35-40
• Running pace: ~12-13 min (staying in zone 2/3)

Notes

• I run (and walk) at a nearby park for about 30 minutes. I typically run a mile and walk another mile.
• I do strength training at the gym, focusing mainly on arms (I don't want it to affect my runs/hikes).
• I usually go hiking at the Dish (depending on the weather/my schedule), which takes roughly an hour.
• Weekends are free, as they naturally include outdoor activities. If not, I might go to the gym as well.
• I will vary my routine depending on how I feel. For example, if my legs are sore, I'll walk instead of running.
