Week 10: Saturday - 45 Minute Fartlek

So my 45 minute fartlek training run transpired to a 5.43 mile run on the treadmill and a great calorie burn! Feeling strong I decided to toggle between comfortable jog and full blow out speed every 2 minutes with full blow spped lasting 30 seconds.  When your going about 7 min/mile pace; every second feels like a mile yet the 2 minute recovery feels great and I was ready to break out into speed mode well after recovery.
So I went between a 8 and 7 min/mile for my speed part of my run and 10min/mile for recovery.  Felt really good with the speed and happy to accomplish the 45 minutes of running.
In transformation,
Yvonne
