I'm really happy to be back to biking...it's been too long for me. Here we are...Denise and I on our first 20 mile ride of the year.
Today was my first time doing interval training. Yea, that first interval sucked! But I got used to them and the time actually went by very quickly. We rested (walked) for 2 minutes in between each lap. Here's my breakdown.

Every Tuesday, I'm joining runMeganrun and Run DMT to do sprints and we’d like you to join our torturous, Track Tuesday efforts. Every Tuesday, we will be hosting a new running linky party called “Track Tuesday”. To join our Track Tuesday Team, do your speed work (at least 4 quarter mile sprints) on Tuesday or any day you that works best for you, blog about your times and remember to add our cool Track Tuesday button to your post. Then, add your link here and link up your post at either runMeganrun or Run DMT to share Track Tuesday Speed Work Sessions. Please support other virtual running partners on the Track Tuesday Team by visiting their blogs. Give them a virtual high-five and leave some comment love too.

What interval training do you do?
Well I am running today - might as well get some sprints in! LOL!
ReplyDeleteSpeed workouts fall on Thursdays for me! 5-6 800s, bleh! But they work! ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat job doing your speed work! I've grown to like intervals, only because I feel so proud of myself afterwards. :) And they really do help you improve your speed!
ReplyDeleteYes, I like see my best pace even though I know it was probably for mere seconds. LOL
