Did a suprisingly challenging workout on the elliptical today. 5 minute warm up, then a sort of fartlek of 5/4/3/2/1/2/3/4/5 (minutes) hard, with equal recovery after the rep. So it was like 5 hard, 5 conversational, 4 hard, 4 conversational, and so on. It wasn't too bad on the way down the ladder, but on the way back up, oh boy. I've done this one running, and it's definitely challenging to keep the same hard pace all the way through, but having my pace and strides per minute right there in front of me to hold me accountable was helpful. 5 minute cool down. A little over 8 miles total.
