Day 71: Morning Run, Evening Lift & 200's

I had two workouts today, opting for a morning run for 2.5 miles in 20 minutes to start the day.

My evening was a lifting session after work and then some 200m efforts on the treadmill for a mile's worth of those.  We set the treadmill at 10mph and did 45 second runs on it for a 200m distance, resting 15 seconds as the switch time.  Basically, we'd have 1 minute of rest between each set we did.

The lifting went pretty good and the sprints at the end for 200m efforts went well, too.

Getting in some solid 45 second periods of work at a good clip was a nice change from doing sprint starts in the gym.

If we had a speedy and heavy duty treadmill, we could do a lot of sprint workouts on there. 

Makes me miss training athletes on such a heavy duty machine, like I used to do.  I worked with athletes on a treadmill that went 28mph and up to 40% incline. You can't buy them in stores, they were specific to the franchise I worked for. There are similar models that go almost as fast and almost as high.

Anyways, it went very well for getting into the next week's worth of workouts.

Success Starts Here!
