WOD: 8/2/2012

Ease to 5k Week 1 is COMPLETE!

It's the same workout as the others, but I always switch it up and go beyond. Like I mentioned {here} this workout has a GPS and can track your distance and speed for the days you workout outdoors. Because I do the treadmill, I like to play around with the inclines. Gives me better results and it's like running around the neighborhood {which has hills and curves and a really bad pavement job}.

  • Warm-up: 3 mph at 10 incline
  • First Interval: Run 6 mph at 5 incline, Walk 3 mph at 10 incline
  • Second Interval: Run 6mph  at 10 incline, Walk 3 mph at 5 incline
  • Third Interval: Run 6 mph at 5 incline, Walk 3 mph at 10 incline
  • Cool down: 3 mph at 10 incline and extended 3:30 minutes for an even 30 min workout.
  • Total Calories Burned: 350

The first time I did this, I burned 256 calories. Great difference--thank you inclines!
