run, run, run
good treadmill run. i thought i'd try the speed variant function and was disappointed to discover it is a manual adjustment, rather than automatic. it would have been better to let the machine provide controlled sprints, rather than me doing it on a whim.
i set it to 5.5mph for my jogging minutes and 6.5mph for regular sprint periods. started off for 3 mins at a jog, sped up for 15 minutes, went back to a jog for 3, cranked it back up and then finished off the last 2 minutes at 7.5mph sprinting to finish.
felt great when i was done. very sweaty, but ultimately a good workout.
tomorrow's a rest day in theory. i may hit the bike, seeing as i havent returned to it yet.
today was my running day. i chose to hit the Y earlier than i usually do because i was up early. ch is at the farm today with the dogs, so i seriously have jackall to do and it's GREAT!
