Final early morning run (really enjoy early morning running). before hopefully completing Week 8 in Greece - if I decide to run on a treadmill what incline and speed for a slow jog please 😝

Good morning....I love morning running too...I especially enjoyed the one when I snook out when everyone was still fast asleep!!!!

I have no idea about treadmills so can't advice you there but just wanted to say well done, you must be able to see the glint of a badge by now!!!! Enjoy your run in Greece...sounds wonderful...hope its outside though, & somewhere by the sea??!!

Me too I know nothing about treadmills, have a happy holiday with your running trainers packed and loaded with energy

a general guideline on treadmill speeds: for most people 2 to 4 mph will be a walking speed; 4 to 5 mph will be a very fast walk or jog; and anything over 5 mph will be jogging or running. Also, try adding some incline to the treadmill rather than just increasing the speed to increase the intensity of the exercise. Adding an incline of 1 to 2 percent better simulates the energy expenditure of walking or running outdoors

Have a lovely holiday Heartlesstoll - will you be there for graduation? I used to prefer flat but faster in the dim and distant past when I was properly fit and ran on a treadmill. Back then I edged my way up to 10-11kph but that would be too fast for me now. I'd probably be 8-9kph now.

No I will be home in UK but I am thinking of doing graduation run in N unfamiliar place to make it special - will be such an achievement 😁😁
