I typed in Week #2, Session #1 stats, and it said it posted. But apparently not.
Anyway, it is 90 second jogs with 2 minute walks. I did exactly 4 miles in 30 minutes, for an average of 4 mph. My jogs were at 5.2 mph, and my walks were the usual 3.5 mph. Any faster makes me break cadence and go into a jog. By the third jog, the heart rate got up to 140 bpm, but it easily went down to under 120 bpm during the generous two minute walks.

Happy New Year!
I think your posts are fascinating and your work ethic inspiring. I am waffling about adding the treadmill back to my regime - but I've decided I must either up my exercise or watch my food, and the food scares me. We'll see. Good luck to us both!

I'm doing the interval runs on the treadmill in order to do the 5K, but I find I like doing a walk to no-where just as a way to de-stress. A couple of times I've taken just 15 minutes when I get home from work, in my street clothes and shoes, and stepped along and found it really improves my mood. I don't know if it does a whole lot for calorie burn or fitness but I like the way it feels. I don't go fast, just steadily. I can listen to news on the radio, and I'm thinking to try watching TV on the iPad. (When I'm running, I have to have loud fast music, couldn't do the news or TV or a book.)
