K, I did my HIIT this way for the whole HELL program. Then, I watched a video linked above, and the guy talked about how coming all the way down to a walk and then going to a sprint and back gave more metabolic bang for the buck because of the spike in metabolism from going from walk to sprint and back. That was the best reasoning I had heard. And, I think it works because I have been freaking starving after doing the runs that way.

Speaking of starving that is exactly what happens to me on hill sprints day. I ate 2700 kcals yesterday and was still hungry. It was freak'n weird. That must be the right ticket then. I will try to emulate this on the tready.
