I’m still working through the Ultimate Treadmill workouts but I slept in yesterday and only ran the first segment of three that were scheduled so I finished the remaining two this morning. It was a progressive run where each set of intervals was 30, 60, and 90 seconds with each interval set faster than the last. The final interval set added in a 3% incline. By the last 90 seconds I was ready to be done!
My speeds were 8, 8.5, and 9 mph (add 3% incline) with 1 minute rest breaks at 3 mph between each interval and a cool down at 6 mph to round out to 3 miles.
1 minute plank because I’m going to Pilates tomorrow morning and don’t want to be too sore to complete the moves. That sounded so douchey. I’m sorry. I thought I’d show you my standard weekday breakfast. That’s almond milk behind the chia seeds. Sometimes I have fresh fruit or honey or protein powder but these ingredients are pretty much always in the rotation. Jackson loves it too so I make two to go cups and he has his for breakfast before school.
Speaking of Jackson, he has turned into a total bookworm. Big Nate, Captain Underpants, and Fart Squad are his current favorites but his tastes have been ranging from those to historical books about the Colorado gold rush. One extreme to the other. Anywho, that’s all I’ve got for you now. I’m going to put my kiddos to bed and enjoy a nice, cold adult beverage. Sometimes you just need to treat yourself! 😉
