What do you guys target as your goal. I hit the treadmill and do 16 minute miles on a 7.5% incline.
Each day is different for me. Somedays your legs feel like kites, some days anchors, with most days being somewhere in between.
I run 4-6 days per week, and crosstrain every day I do not run, and some days that I do.
I work core at least 2, usually 3 days a week, and strength train 3-4 days a week.
For running I try not to increase my mileage more than 10% per week as a guideline, although the last two weeks, have each been a 20% increase. I am also increasing my mph each week also.
The more you do, the “easier” it gets, so make sure you keep changing it up. The body is an amazing piece of machinery, and doing the same thing each time allows your body to adapt, and not get the full benefit of the workout.
Keep at it.
