Running Workout 8: Tempo run on the treadmill

So I did this run workout on the treadmill a couple of days ago. This can be done outside/on a track, but it may be easiest to do it on a treadmill.

Total time: 60 minutes

Warm up:
10 minutes easy jog

Main Set:
3 x 1 mile race pace efforts with a 1.5 incline
1 x 1 mile slightly below race pace effort. Within this 1 mile effort, do 2 min. at 1.5 incline and then 2 min. at 5.5 incline. Do this twice
1 x 1 mile race pace effort or above at 1.5 incline.

Cool Down:
10 minutes easy
Do some abs and push-ups afterwards

P.S.
Use this workout to experiment with your race pace efforts.
