    6 sets of 2 minute intervals at 80% your HRM or at a speed you find challanging, recovery 2 minutes walking at around 6KM/H or 4MPH. If you complete the following week you up the intensity of the interval by 0.5MPH. Is this the kind of thing you are thinking of?? Do this for a month and chart it see how the weight drops off and how quickly you adapt to the race pace!! HIIT!! at its best

    Potentially interested. Used to be into running and volunteered (over too many beers) to join a group in the next couple of months, so I need to get myself in gear. I've a basic treadmill in the house so could use it to get up to speed while its still too cold to go outside.
