AM - 3xmile repeats Hit them on the treadmill today (decided that I am going to go for the 5:00 minute repeats Steve and I have talked about, so my best chance was on the treadmill where it is flat and I am forced to keep up or off - I did put the incline down to 0 because I figured I may need all the help I could get). 1 1/2 mile warmup. First 1/2 at 8:30 then next mile at 7:30. 1-did it! but it was tough. That thing was zooming and my legs got very tired. Had to hold onto the bars hear and there to help myself out (tried not to lift myself up and take weight off, rather just keep from flying off) 2-easier! barely used the bars at all and the legs were moving well. Breathing seemed less labored then the 1st 3-pumped myself up, told myself I could do it and did it. The easiest one yet. Maybe easy isn't the right term, but I didn't need to use the bars at all (just checked my heartrate at about .75 miles and it was 179 - 182 at same place on the 2nd repeat). Pretty stoked though - Gives me a good start to all I want to accomplish this Spring. With 1/2 recovery at 8:49 and 1 cooldown at 7:30 finished with 7 miles Afternoon - weights (regular routine) W-154 RHR-43 |
