All things training. Mostly advice and tips but maybe questions, general comments, or who knows what else.

Developing Targeted Treadmill Workouts With NordicTrack And Other Experts

NordicTrack recently reached out to me to work on a project with them and I am excited to be able to share that project with you.

Some other blogging runners and I were brought together by NordicTrack to help runners everywhere learn how to develop targeted treadmill workouts. So, if you want your treadmill runs to be more targeted for your running needs, keep on reading!

Don’t be afraid to run slow

Last week, I had three runs that stuck out on my training log: 6 miles at 9:00 pace, 5 miles at 8:55 pace, and 7 miles at 8:56 pace.

Given the fact that I also had a 15 mile run at 7:58 pace and a workout where I ran mile repeats in the 6:13-6:14 range and half mile repeats at 5:40 pace, I think you can see why those runs stuck out.

Was I disappointed with those runs? Not one bit.

How do you keep score?


To some runners, this is all that matters. To others, this doesn’t matter at all.

What matters to you? What would you consider a win or loss?

These are things that we should keep in mind when we plan our running.

Why?

Plans change

Recently, I pulled a hamstring avoiding a homicidal driver of a pickup truck who decided stop signs are optional and people in crosswalks want to die.

This week, I came down with a cold.

The past month has been rough.
