I find running on the treadmill with a grade is much more tolerable than running on level grade.

Back to the Treadmill
Yes, you know I'm not a fan of the treadmill, but when it's -9F wind chill outside and you have a hard interval training run, there's no other alternative than to stay inside a tough it out on the treadmill. I had someone send me an article on whether treadmills will make you crazy and it said that treadmills can make you tougher mentally. So I convinced myself of that and used it as a challenge and I finished a good/hard 40 minute interval run increasing the grade .5% every 4 minutes.

Good on you, running on treadmill could be most boredom thing ever, usually I watch TV or movie to distract my attention.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, it is a challenge.
