I'm very proud of my workout today. I did 35 minutes on the treadmill in a run walk interval of 2 minutes running, 3 minutes walking. I started the running pace at 4.5 mph but I build up and by the last interval I was running at 6.0 mph. Next running session I'm starting at 5.0 mph but I'm not going to run faster than 6.5 mph. Ideally, when I start training on the road (outside of my walks), I want to maintain a pace of 6.0 mph.
In terms of exertion, I definitely felt it this time. During the early run/walk intervals I would say it felt like *3/4 but as I pushed up the pace I would say the walk interval felt like a *4 and the run intervals felt like a *5, once probably even a *5/6. But, the running interval is so short that by the time it was feeling like a *5/6 it was time to walk again.
Gotta to go to work soon. I'm going to watch a little bit of my swimming video.
