Wasn’t able to get up early enough to do my run outside today (because it is still hot hot hot) so I admitted defeat and used a treadmill at TJ. Then about two-thirds of the way through, I managed to knock loose what I refer to as the “panic button” (that thing you’re supposed to have connected to you in case you fall off the treadmill, so it’ll automatically shut down) and the entire treadmill came to a halt and I wasn’t smart enough to look at what the reading was in time. Oh well. Treadmills are all approximate any, so that’s just my best guess.

Provided I wake up early enough on Saturday, next up should be a 25 minute run. Yay?

Almost done with the interval part of the recovery schedule! I think I have one more, and then it’ll just be things like “25 minutes” and so on. Slowly but surely getting there.
