Hills

Wednesday, May 24th

I'm starting to like the treadmill. I never thought I actually would say that - but there are lots of benefits. It's a very forgiving surface, I can control the speed and incline exactly, and a full workout lasts the same time as a full episode of Law & Order (TNT primetime in the daytime!!).

Today I did intervals of hills. 1 minute flat, 1 minute hill - constant speed of 12:00min/mile, and hills were an incline of 6%. My heart rate was ~145-150 at the top of the hills, and 125-30 at the beginning of them.
