Track on the Treadmill....

Program : 2km warm-up.
Stretches, drills, strides.
3km with heart rate between 130 -140.....ease off at 138.
2km warm-down.

As usual on the treadmill, it takes more than 1km for me to get to this heart rate & by the time I do, the 3kms is just about up! After the warm-up & break for drills etc. I have to restart the engine slowly at 10kph & gradually speed up to 12kph which I find almost impossible to stay at for fear of flying off the treadmill! All this being the case, I probably run only the last 500m with heart rate between 130 and 140! I must ask Ewen about the logic of this.

Rest tomorrow & then a huge one on Sunday 32km...Good God, I'll be gone all day!

  1. If you get lost on the all-day run tomorrow I'll send out Horrie and Belinda to find you.

    By the way, don't you mean 'ease off'?

  4. I made another typo error! I hope I removed it before Ewen saw it!

    What I said was : Yes" to Ewen!

    To Clairie I said: "If I'm gone all day or (I typed "ot" before!) get lost, Ewen will be sure to write something for me....without typo errors!
