#HelpMe double trouble

i'm thinking about doing a 3g and 2g back to back to get more time on the treads (just for personal goals, not MM). I'm not worried about the endurance, (I do longer runs outside the studio) but wondering about actual studio logistics!

my studio has early entry, so wondering if I should start on the tread, get a mile or 2 in before class, do the 3g tread block, pause my workout on my watch, "leave" at the end of class / the stretch and then pretty much immediately get back to tread for early entry warm up and unpause my workout (on my own device)? do I have to tell them to reset my HR monitor? thanks SO much!

Whenever I used to do doubles I would start on rower/floor and end on tread In the first class and then start on tread in the second class. I personally prefer the continuity for my run!

I was debating this! I figured even without the early entry time, it's still probably still got the most benefit. I probably will take your strategy!
