After the cruise last month, I put on a few pounds (don’t we all) that I would like to get back off before the Disney Marathon Weekend in January. I could really tell the extra pounds in my half marathon last weekend, and my recent long runs. I was out cruising blogs and found a treadmill workout that I found interesting. Here is the original blog article with further details. Simply it is interval treadmill training, but nothing I had not previously attempted. I did it today at the gym, and it works out to about a 12 minute overall pace, and equates to about 3.4 miles total. Here is the interval plan is recommended. I thought I would pass it along to everyone in case you wanted to try it out. Post in the comments if you gave it a shot.
