2 easy. 6.7-7 mph. With pick ups x 4 for 30 seconds 8.5 mph at end.
3x 2 miles at hmp. 8.2 mph. 7:18 pace. -.5 for sets 2 and 3. This tm is definitely uphill. 4 min rest in between. Supposed to be 3 min.
last one jumped off for 30 seconds twice paused tm. But did go faster at end so all we're done in 14:39. One mile cool down. No decline. Switch TMS to one not so uphill. Ahh much better. 8:54 for both miles. Upper body.
