March 11, 2008

Workout: Treadmill - interval running
Time: 34:30
Distance: 3.0 miles
Speeds: 4.0/4.2/5.2/5.7/6.2/6.7

I made it through the first two sets of intervals without any breaks in the running (I stop for a quick drink of water right before I turn it up to 5.2 and then another quick break right before I turn it back down to 4.0). This is awesome! I love it when I make mental breakthroughs that translate into physical breakthroughs. Now I need to work on making it through three sets. I found that if I paid close attention to my breathing and made sure I was breathing regularly (instead of gasping or laboring) I could make it through. Running follows breathing.
