LM warmup, 9.39 treadmill miles in 1:09:53, 7:27/mi, w/ 2 mile warmup (incline 1), 3 x 10 min Tempo Intervals w/ 3 min rest (incline 5), 2 mile cooldown (incline 1), core workout & stretching.

More snow outside so the treadmill was the only option to get a quality workout in.  Plus, I wasn't keen on slipping and sliding in the snow. Turns out the treadmill was actually fairly pleasant......for a treadmill.  Interval 1 was at a 6:32/mi pace, adjusted to 5:48/mi for the incline.  That seems awful fast.  Interval 2 was a 6:27/mi pace, adjusted to 5:45/mi.  That seems awful fast.  Interval 3 was a 6:25/mi pace, adjusted to 5:46/mi.  That seems awful fast.  Notice a trend.  So either the equivalent pace chart I downloaded ages ago from hillrunner.com is skewed, my treadmill speeds/inclines are suspect, gravity isn't directly downwards, or I'm in much better shape today than I was yesterday.  I'm guessing it isn't #4.  But I'll take a good solid workout.
