Actual - 1 mile in 10 min followed by 3 miles in 24 min then a final mile in 10 min. Beth let me use her treadmill today. I'd never used one before and it took me a while to get used to running and not moving! I am using this inexperience, and the fact that I had done 3 hours snowboarding as well today, as an excuse for substituting a 3 mile 8 min pace run for the interval session. I think I need to be more experienced on the treadmill before I do any complicated session work on it. Tomorrow Beth is going to take me to the local health club which has an indoor running track, so maybe I can do some session work there. The altitude does seem to have an impact on my performance, my mbeat rate for the treadmill run was 1.28 m/heartbeat when I would have expected 1.3 plus at least. Let's hope that there is a positive impact on my fitness when we return to sea level.
