Route: I wish. This was done on the end treadmill at the downtown gym.
Weather: It's freezing too cold outside so I did this on the treadmill. This actually happened today becuase Monday was a running outside day. The workout is better suited to a treadmill and today's weather had treadmill written all over it.
Wardrobe: Hee hee. I was inside. Shorts, short sleeve shirt, Xero shoes
Execution: On the treadmill, the speeds were very close to what coach prescribed. It wound up being like 10:54/mile, 10:42/mile; 10:31/mile; 10:20/mile and then the last set I did at 10:00/mile, though I wish I hadn't done it that fast.
'Rest' was at 14:38/mile.
Warm up was partially walking and then light jogging. Cool down was all walking.
Nutrition: This was fasted.
From today, I learned: I took careful counts of the treadmills. This gym doesn't have a track, treadmills only, so my fear is they will all be full. This morning there were 2-3 other people using the treadmills when I started and only 1 by the time I was done with the weights workout. So, note to my future self: Go in the morning and quit freaking out. Everything will be fine.
Bonus: I did Wednesday weights after this workout. It took a long time for my heart rate to cool off after the tempo. Wowsers.
