AM: 10 miles. Half very easy, then I started the watch and worked my way up to a 6:10 pace.

 

PM (only a few hours later): 7 miles on treadmill with 3 x 1 mile with 800 rest.5:15, 5:10, 5:05. Did the rest in about 7:30 pace. I was suprised to see that I did the 4 miles in 22:55, only about 5-15 seconds slower than my recent 4 mile tempo runs. I guess that mesns that I was working too hard today, or I can increase the speed or distance of the tempo runs. Maybe both.

 

Moving today and tomorrow. Going 2 doors down the hall to a 2 bedroom apartment instead of the current 1 bedroom.

Try the same workout on the track when you get a chance. Or do you already know how accurate your treadmill is?

P.S. It is a very good thing that I am questioning the accuracy of the treadmill :-)

Treadmill is accurate, but it is always easier to hold a tough pace when the treadmill is doing the pacing and there is no headwind. The same workout on the track would probably be 5-10 seconds a mile slower. I'll have to give it a try.
