Treadmill Workout: Incline Interval

In doing some research for The Wife regarding treadmill workouts, I happened across Peanut Butter Fingers. The author put together quite a few treadmill workouts, a few of which mentioned the words "incline" and "interval".

Her post, Cheese Please, caught my eye.

I sent the info to The Wife, she did that workout, and then sent me this:

Ha!

Which meant, of course, that I wanted to do it!

After The Kids were bedded down, I headed to our "home gym", to meet my old friend:

Samuelson Home Gym: Treadmill

Her workout calls for Warm Up of 4MPH @ 6% incline and then repeats of intervals of 7MPH @ 1% for 3:00 followed by inclines of 4.5MPH @ 6% for 2:00.

I modified the WU only slightly, and then did:

MPH	Incline	Duration
8.0	2%	3:00
6.0	7%	2:00
8.0	2%	1:30
8.1	2%	1:30
6.1	7%	2:00
8.0	2%	1:00
8.1	2%	1:00
8.2	2%	1:00
6.2	7%	2:00
8.1	2%	1:00
8.2	2%	1:00
9.0	1.5%	1:00
7.0	6%	1:00
6.0	8%	1:00
5.0	10%	1:00
4.0	12%	1:00
3.0	2%	1:00

Short? Yes. Intense? Yes. A hot mess at the end? You know it.
