Pre running - road biker.
1st year - 3 x 30 minutes on treadmill, 10:00/mile pace, would occasionally kick it up to 7:00/m or 8:00/m.
2nd year - 5 x 25 minutes, easy, unknown pace (just a loop around the 'hood for fitness, no other training due to other commitments).
3rd year - this year, started running every day, sometimes twice a day. Consistently was hitting 6 x 45min. Running is/was done with a baby jogger.
I got on the treadmill yesterday and 10:00/mile was killing me. This is no good!
Should I just keep bumping up the speed on the treadmill over the winter? I'm thinking maybe every 6 weeks bump it up .5mph?
