I set the treadmill to 16km/hr for most of the run then upped it to 20km/hr for the last 400m. This gave me a time of 8mins 52 secs. Cheers for that mate, put it on 16km/h today then went to wack it up for the last 400m and realised the treadmill goes no faster! Got 9.16 with it on 16 the whole way...
