One of the results of slacking off the day before is a lot of energy for the run today. I wasn't actually planning on doing speedwork, but after a mile i decided to do the workout that i was going to miss out on with the club later that day. So here's my workout...which btw is so not as much fun on the tread....alone...
every 1/2 mile i would change the incline through this pattern - up to 1.0, down to -1.0, and then .0...it keeps me occupied
miles 1-3- 7.0 - 8.0 - (treadmill speed)
mile 4 - 8.2, mile 5 - 8.7 mile 6 - 9.5, mile 7 - 9.8, mile 8-9.5 = 10.2.
cool down .5
Last mile felt pretty hard, but that's the first hard workout i'd had since the marathon. My knee has been bugging here and there, and hurt for about the first mile, then eased off - hmmm.
on the positive side, abs never really hurt. ulcer just a little - I'm a mess ha ha.
Got to do my Zumba Party tonight!!!! So much fun - packed room with 65 people and 5 instructors - I love my job:) I was surprised i didn't feel tired for the whole 1.5 hours at all. |
