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. |
