Monday Morning - Long Reps on the Treadmill (4)
As i had the kids this morning my session had to be
on the treadmill. For something a little different for me
I decided on some long reps.
Warmup 1.8kms slow jogging pace then 3 x 1600m
reps @ 5:00min per km pace. Between each rep was
a walking recovery of 200m. That may seem like a fairly
easy pace for those reps, but i have always felt that
this treadmill runs a little faster than the pace shown.
The pace i was running at feels like about 4:40 pace so
i guess that's all that matters! To finish up - a cooldown
jog of 800m and a set of chairdips and pullups.
The discomfort at the top of my left leg/groin area is now
there from pretty much the word go. I will see what happens
over the next day or two.

I have also noticed that treadmills seem to be faster than on the road.

Looks like some good, serious training going on here! If the leg continues to give you problems, I woud definately get it checked out sooner, rather than later. Take care. MAR.
