My running assignment for today was 10' hard on the treadmill, or a 2K time trial. The weather was cold and uninviting, so I chose what I thought would be the easier of the two tasks. It sure didn't feel like it. After a thorough warmup of about 4K + some drills, I jumped on the whirling, twirling treadmill. After 2', I had to lower the elevation, as I knew I wouldn't make it to the end of the 10' with the elevation set. I flattened out the 'mill and finished the remaining 8'.
5:43' mile pace felt demanding for me today, when stretched over 10'; but it's just what I need to shake out the running complacency.
A total of about 8k running with drills; 10' hard; cooldown.
