Treadmill Pyramid Session for Stronger Running
In this episode of my new vlog (check out all the videos here), I describe one of my favourite treadmill sessions.
Generally speaking, I'm not the biggest fan of treadmill running. That said, I'm also a realist, and I appreciate that for some runners, occasionally circumstances dictate that a session on the treadmill is the most viable option!
So if you need to do a treadmill session, here's a cracker for you :)
