AM long run broken up:  9 miles on the home treadmill - 71:50. Slowly increased speed. Nap time for kid, so daddy put on some warm clothes and ran to the bank and back.  8.22 miles in 63:38. Feeling decent.

AM treadmill workout.  30 degrees and freezing rain with a thunderstorm brewing. 

4x3:00 hills @ 6% - 7.5mph up to 8mph with 1:30 rec. jog, 4min. jog rec.,

4x3:00 hills @ 8% - 7mph with 1:30 rec. jogs

Our old rickety home TM takes about 30 seconds to get up to those inclines.  I was definitely at LT effort at the tail end of each of these reps., which was the intent of the workout.  This has been a decent start to spring training.

6.5 total - 54:40
