2x2 Mile on the Treadmill
>> Monday, February 01, 2021
You know this workout. I've written about this often - here's a concise write-up from 2 years ago. It's a nice balance of SPEED and INTENSITY for me. Here's a post from when I pushed Charlie in the stroller on these intervals back in December.
I tried it on the treadmill for the first time on Friday. Our treadmill is slow to change speed, so I was ready for it to be annoying getting up to speed to start each interval. And it doesn't show hundredths of a mile (just tenths), so it was going to be harder to know when to speed up as to be up to speed at the right moment.
My first interval was... decent. It didn't feel that fast, so I knew I'd push harder for #2. I started at 9.8 mph and cranked it up over 10 mph shortly. I think I ended up at 10.4 mph for the last mile of the first interval:
3:03, 2:59, 2:53, 2:53 = 11:50.11
My screen while starting to walk between my intervals.
It shows my warm-up, walking a bit, and my first interval.
2:56, 2:51, 2:50, 2:45 = 11:24.55
Walking before a cool down, showing both intervals.
Again, here's more info on this workout if you're interested.
