A.M. - 55 minute treadmill run at the Life Centre. Today was supposed to be an outside day and I was looking forward to doing my 12-mile course. However, by the time I got up and was ready to go, it was raining and kind of windy outside and didn't look like it was going to let up any time soon. So I decided to wuss-out and just go down to the gym. 'Was okay with it since yesterday was supposed to be an inside day, but I ended up going out. The gym was particularly warmer than usual, but fortunately I did seem to notice it much during the run. Run went as follows: 5 mins @ 9.5 mph, flat 5 mins @ 10.0, flat 20 mins all at 10 mph with progressive incline, 3 mins each at 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0 and then 5 mins at 3.5 back to flat for 5 mins, still 10.0 mph 10 mins @ 10.5, flat 10 mins @ 11.0, flat Cool down, graviton, lunges, stretching. Wanted to stick it out strong for 5 more minutes to make it a round 60 mins, but I didn't have the will power today. Overall, a good run. Felt good. I'm happy that nothing about the body is bothering me right now (knock on wood). I pray that it continues that way. Congrats to those who had great races today down in St. George (Fritz, Holt, Superfly, and other). I'm jealous. Here's to a great year!
