Had to run 4 days last week on treadmill because i was in NJ where temperatures did not get above 26 degrees. Also because the only times i could have run would have been in the dark, so together, these were not good options. I had to LOVE the treadmill. And now that I did my duty, I hope to not go back on for at least another week. Let’s hope the weather cooperates in Atlanta. It sure did this weekend, however I felt pretty tired on both runs outside. The sunshine kept me going, but i was tired. All over tired. I guess it was the being away and traveling and all. The great part about going on treadmill is that I was also able to use weights/machines. All in all, I feel like my legs need to refreshed. Maybe a massage this week. Next race is in 14 days.

sounds like training’s going great! i’m sure that being outside in NJ is a heck of a shock compared to Atlanta right now. We’re headed out to LA this weekend and I can’t wait for some sun!

sorry I’ve been a stranger…but I’m back now. glad you learned to love the treadmill. the treadmill’s a friend of my during the snowstorms around here. not the kind of friend I’d invite over for Christmas dinner, but the kind of friend I’d say hi to if I saw them at the grocery store.
