Treadmill tempo at the gym at city creek. Doing a 3 day $30 pass. I need to take note of the type of treadmill but they are very nice and quiet and they have an iFit app that allowed me to have my workout emailed to me.

Started out with the warmup and I could tell the pace was harder than my work treadmill. Went from 8.5 mph for 1/2 mile, 9 for 1 mile, 9.5 for 1 mile, 10 for 1/2 mile. Then 1 minute at 5:00 pace (ack), 1 minute at 6:00 pace (not recovering much), 2 minutes at 5:00 pace (make it stop), 2 minutes at 6:00 pace (I can't do that again), 3 minutes at 11 mph, 3 minutes at 10 mph, then STOP. 12 minute workout and then I got off and got a drink.

Then I did marathon pace 10.1-10.5 miles per hour for 36 minutes then 2x30 seconds at 5:00 pace. Then cooled down to 15 miles total.

In total, 15 miles in 1:31:50 at 1 and .5 incline (for latter half). Much harder than work treadmill which is a helpful reailty check. Still a good workout and a nice way to spend a day off.

I have done about 330 miles on that work treadmill this year so that really should count as a fraction of 330, but not sure what that fraction would be. Oh well.

nice work. recovering at 6 min pace? ouchies. i hope the STOP part means you dramatically smashed the big red button and then fell over in a heap on the TM. i used to do that every day in college.

Yup - I never stop on my treadmill runs so it was unusual but I felt I needed to reassess. I did there the last two weeks at work but the effort was too easy so I suspected something was awry and confirmed it today...
