Interval running 3.1.2007



Back to work(out)


First decent training session since X-mas break:
  • Stretching legs, back, neck and arms
  • Interval running on treadmill
    • 10min x 10km/h
    • 10min x 16km/h
    • 10min x 10km/h
    • 10min x 16km/h
    • 5min x 10km/h
    • 1,5min x 17,5km/h
    • 1,5min x 19km/h
  • Stretching thighs
Comments:
  • Too high heart rate: I won't be increasing the speed yet from 16km/h.
  • Optimal training effect: Legs feel tired the next day, but I think I can recover fully in two days.
  • Mentally very easy; didn't require pushing at any phase, and 16km/h feels very comfortable.
  • No sign of the slight pain in knee that has troubled me during Christmas break. Obviously my knees just weren't able to handle the extra weight I put on by eating for the whole week without training at all ;).
