Intervals, sort of. October 18, 2007

Digg! this story.

I tried to do intervals on the treadmill today. I think I was mildly successful. Luckily I had my treadmill guru Sherene with me. I had no IDEA there were so many features on a treadmill. I spent the first 10 minutes wondering which fabulous workout I would choose. So many buttons to push, so little time.
I chose the HR Zone Intervals and quickly realized that it was not quite as challenging as I had hoped. But, I only had an hour so I stuck with it just to see if maybe it got better. It didn’t. Don’t get me wrong, I still got a good workout in. I think I’m just so used to feeling like I’m getting the crap beat out of me that when I do have a run where I feel human afterwards I think I didn’t push it far enough.
Tomorrow I’m going to go for distance. I’m going to try and hit the gym at dark o’clock and get in 5 miles on the treadmill. Ick.
The highlight our treadmill tryst (Sherene and I, that is) was the introduction of Cosmo’s 50 hottest bachelors on The Today Show – one from every state. Wow. Talk about inspiration. Mr. Alaska is particularly tasty. Unfortunately we came to the same conclusion: They all look so young. Ouch. I guess I’ll stick with my cute little Jefferschmuz.
