Treadmill Tuesday (3/20)

Back on the treadmill...so I did 7 miles total, 60min at 12% incline. I've been trying a little experiment with my training...(more about that later) but today was a slow day on the treadmill. I've been training by heart rate so today my 12% incline was putting me at an average between 2.9-3.1 mph. I TOLD YOU IT WAS SLOW. The rest was running slower then usual too, between 10:30-11:00 min mile. I don't like slow. That's me being impatient. But lets be realistic, I'm not a fast runner, just average, so why not change things up a little. It just scares me to go slow...with a 100 miles in front of me...I'm afraid I'm going to run out of time. :)

Treadmill Tuesday (3/6)

Back at it again:

20min warm up at 0.5 incline to 9:22min/mile
 3min recovery walk to bring HR down
10min at 3.4, 12% incline (decided i couldn't build of that and backed down)
10min at 3.0, 12% incline
10min at 3.1 12% incline
10min at 3.2 12% incline
10min at 3.3 12% incline
 3min at 3.4 12% incline

For a total of: 76min, 5miles (ran out of time-wanted to do 7miles but had to get to work)

3lb water weight loss, 20oz water replacement during workout (this is info for me later to figure out sweat rate for electrolyte replacement)
