55:15 :: 8 miles

Easy run on the mill with speed and hills. Did 15 minutes at 7:00 pace, then .45mi at 6:00 pace and 7% incline, about 2:45. Although not technically 'speed', it definitely built some power. Did another at 30 minutes in 2:51, then .25mi at 10% incline in 1:30, which was the toughest of the three. Again, focused on powerful toe-off, hips forward, and relaxation.

Legs felt slightly heavy this morning, and there is a significant workload the next two days, so I did 8 instead of 10.

Wow - a 10% incline on the tread. Does it have outriggers?

As I have read back through your posts, it looks as though things are really coming together for Fargo training-wise.

She goes another 5%, too. I can't imagine ever torturing myself like that, but it's available if I'm ever feeling stupid.

The training is about to kick up a couple of notches. Should be a lot of fun, and pain, but a good kind of pain.
