My first quality run of the week included 20 minutes at easy pace, followed by 20 minutes at threshold pace and a final 20 minutes at easy pace. I did not run outside - partly because I was worried about my footing for the 20 minutes at threshold pace and partly because it was -11 and feels like -19 and I was too chicken.
For the 20 minutes at threshold pace I should be running a 4:20 minute/km - so I had the treadmill at 7.5mph and a 4% incline. I was thinking multiple times during the 20 minute threshold that maybe I should take a break, but I managed to get through it all without a stop. I wonder if I had been running outside if I would have been so tempted to break.
This week I'm again at 80% of my peak mileage - so another 68.0km of running.
