great fast workout today on the....treadmill! I usually sort of hate the dreadmill/treadmill, but I only had a bit of time and I'd promised myself I would attempt to run. Miraculously, I worked up the courage to put both kids in the gym daycare and I hit the treadmill. I gave myself 30 minutes and attempted to run as much as possible while taking walking breaks and using some intervals to keep my heart rate way up.
final tally:
30 minutes
2.55 miles
280 calories burned
I alternated between 3.7 for rest periods, then 5.0 for slow jog, 6.0 for medium jog and 7.0 for fast jog. I did a few sets of one minute intervals and then did some 2 minute intervals until the clock said 30 minutes.
I will do this workout 2 times a week going forward, mixing up the intervals, working my way up to 3.1 miles in 30 minutes.
go go go!
