Fast enough you don't fly off the end. hahahaha
Sounds like you should go with rate of breath exchange....in other words run fast enough you can say about a sentence before you have to stop talking and catch your breath....if you can carry on a conversation then run faster. :)
Depends what your training goals are. Consider investing in a heart rate monitor. Nike, Polar or any of the other big names make good ones for relatively cheap.
how old are u
all depends on your goals (fat loss, endurance, speed etc).
Your goal is the achieve 65% to 70% MHR (220 - Your Age = MHR). The speed of the treadmill will be determined by your overall condition. Bewteen 3.8 & 4.2 MPH @ 5 incline does it for me.
When I do my cardio, which I don't do enough of. Treadmill EOD 45min. at 4.2mph at 11-11.5 incline. Sweat pants, hoody, MP3. Its all good from there.
