Treadmill Workouts - Workout 4
This is a short(ish) workout for the 10km road runner. Although this workout is set over 5km, a pre-event 10km runner may wish to increase the distance to nearer the 10km mark in their training, however, you should look to fluctuate speed and/ or incline percent, rather than a contiunual increase of speed every 1km - performing a speed pyramid (pace peaking at 5km) would be a sensible choice. Alternatively, if your 10km event is over hilly ground, you may wish to increase or decrease incline percentage during this workout, rather than speed.
Remember, these workouts are not set in stone - they're simply to provide you with ideas to create your own gym workouts.
So, here goes - treadmill workout 4.
