It wasn't anything all that exciting, I guess.
Wait for it...

This morning, I did hills on a treadmill.
I warmed up for a mile (9:00), and then did 4x1:00 on an increasing incline with 1:30 flat in-between (2%, 2.5%, 3.5%, 4% incline) at 8:27, and then 4x1:00 (2.5, 3, 3.5, 4-5) at 8:06.
I cooled down for a mile at 8:30-9, and then did one last hill at 5% at the very end.
I expect to be sore tomorrow, but for now, I'm loving the way it made me feel afterward (complete with the nap an hour later).
I realize it's only day 2 and I might eat my words very soon, but right now I'm just wondering: why did I wait so long to really try to get in powerful shape?
It has nothing to do with being stubborn, I swear.

There is no secret to a fast marathon. Sit down with a calendar. Plan your weekly mileage total, adding no more than 10% per week. When it hits 70, keep it there for a while and start increasing your long run distance, by no more than 10% per week. When it hits 22, keep it there for a while. Taper for a couple weeks. Run your PR. Boom done.
That’s looks so nice your posting.
Everything looks good in your posting.
That will be necessary for all. Thanks for your posting.
