Evening Run - L4 Hill Repeats

Workout:
WU - 25' build L1 to L3
MS: 5x3' hills (3.5-4%) (2' RI)
CD: 5' @ L3, 5' walking

This was a tough workout... Being rather poor at running, higher intensities really suck! This workout was originally structured to be an outdoor run, but my circumstances have relegated me to the treadmill for most of my weekday run training. Heart rate was pretty consistent for the first 25 minutes, building from L1 to L3 effort. The hills were tough. I kept the same pace (about 8:00/mi) but jacked up the treadmill incline to about 4% grade. Maintaining that pace up those grades for 3 minutes was tough. It felt good, though. I'm really enjoying the running right now!
