in5omniac Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Away at cameron house this weekend so no parkrun. Did 13k on the treadmill in the gym this morning though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeklipse Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Decent parkrun at Cramond yesterday. Slightly over 20 mins (running forwards - sorry Parklife ) but my dodgy knee felt fine afterwards so did another much slower lap before heading off to work.

You'll break 20mins easily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeklipse Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I have done before, don't worry. More concerned with getting the miles in just now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cove_Sheep Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 An evil treadmill intervals session before work to start the week. Will hopefully get another wee run in tonight. Not expecting any further ice this year after ordering some Yaktrax after losing a battle with black ice on Friday evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParisInAKilt Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Treadmill interval training. Thinking 60 seconds sprints, 90 second recovery x10. Anyone do anything similar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parklife Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Do you always run at a steady pace? If you want to get that pace down I'd strongly advise you to do intervals on the treadmill. Obviously start off at an easier level to get used to it but my last treadmill interval sessions was: 2 mins warm up - 8% incline & 8kmph; Alternating between 1 min - 12% incline & 12kmph 1 min - 8% incline & 8kmph For 20 minutes 3 min cool down. 25minutes total.

Cove_Sheep Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I've been doing it for half an hour in total. 2 mins warmup 25 mins of the reps 3 mins cooldown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JECK Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Has anyone ever managed to injure themselves whilst running on an incline on a treadmill? Managed to pull my poplutius muscle I think it's called just behind the knee. Kept me out of running for 10 months. Just a word of warning for folk that do. Am terrified of treadmills now.

bajin Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I've been doing it for half an hour in total. 2 mins warmup 25 mins of the reps 3 mins cooldown. 2 minute warmup is a recipe for injury. I think you should do at least 15 minutes warmup at a slow pace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deecie Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 2 minute warmup is a recipe for injury. I think you should do at least 15 minutes warmup at a slow pace. Agreed. I recommend running TO the gym. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeklipse Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) You would have done it if you had used your Garmin 110 Ha ha, probably. It's a shame parkrun don't use one to time us Agreed. I recommend running TO the gym. How fast…? Edited January 28, 2015 by Deeklipse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McVinceSCT Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 15 mns at slow pace + 4 or 5 fast runs on approx 100 meters is really the minimum before doing the intervals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamia Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Broken my monthly distance record and on day 28 of my runstreak - currently standing at 137 miles. Quite enjoying running every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pool Q Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Broken my monthly distance record and on day 28 of my runstreak - currently standing at 137 miles. Quite enjoying running every day.

Lamia Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 That's why you're losing to cove sheep It isn't his gym work that is the reason And nothing would make me go to the gym anyway not even if it made a difference. No point doing something you don't enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Endell Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Eight-mile run through the snow this morning - up to Carmunnock then home via Busby. Can't beat a freezing morning with clear skies for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
