MH Tabata

Eating:  apple, and going to Le Paume for lunch in a few with JPM
Drinking:  a small matcha
Listening:  Hammer
 
Ran:
5' at 5.5mph
6 x 40" on, 20" off at 15 incline, 5.5 mph
10' at 5.5mph
 
Only laziness prevented me from running 15 or 20 minutes at the end.  Still, I had a good workout, and I was able to keep a good focus on my form for the entire time.  Better to do that than to run 20, end up slapping for the last 7 minutes and get shinsplints.
 
I liked the MH Tabata format.  I didn't get as winded as I do by the 8th rep on a regular Tabata (in fact, I probably could have survived another 2) but it was still tough to complete, and I was able to keep the running speed down and thus maintain form.  Form form form.
