I'm a bit of a slow runner, seeing how the fastest I can run at a shortened time interval is 8mph. Thanks

Get your heart rate up to 180+(this is all out max effort here) let it drop back down to 130ish by resting, or going very slowly, go back and forth for about 10 minutes. And yeah, please don't be eating very low carb if you're going to exercise like this!!
