Running (Treadmill) 57:57 8.5 mi (6:49 / mi) ahr:141 max:155 shoes: Huaka - Jan 17
Run 2: Modified version of the Flat Progression workout on treadmill:
a. Start at 15 seconds per mile slower than Easy Pace and run for 5:00.
b. Starting at 5:00, speed up by 0.1MPH (usually 1 "click") each 2:00.
c. Go until you can't complete 2:00 at the new speed.
d. Slow back down to marathon pace and run that for 5:00 (should be hard to do when you are this fatigued), and then slow down to easy pace for 10:00 or till you hit 70:00.
Note: Started at 7.6 mph and at 53:00 when I went to go past 10.0 mph, I realized the treadmill only went to 10.0 mph – so I stayed there for another 4 minutes. At 57:00, I backed it to 8.9 mph which felt reasonable comfortable. I had been feeling a little right shin split since yesterday when I ran in my dress shoes with a backpack to catch my train. Not sure if related, but at 58:00, I had a quick, painful twinge in my right hip. I stopped and walked for 10:00. I don’t think I did anything, but perhaps I wasn’t fully recovered from 24.5 mile run 2 days ago and my hip was just letting me know.
