I was in a bit of a time crunch today and not sure what kind of workout I was going to do, but I knew I needed to do something. Not needed to do something because I had to train but needed to do something because I went back to work today and needed to run for myself. I am extra excited about this run because on the schedule the workout was only supposed to be 2 miles @ 6:54 pace. I was feeling so good after 2 miles I decided to keep going for 3. That never happens. I know that running on the treadmill is easier than running on roads in theory but for me, running on the treadmill has always been harder. Next time, I will increase the incline.
Usually, when I use the treadmill I drive to my gym, but lately, I have been using the little gym in my apartment complex. I’ve lived here for 2 years now, and never used it until recently. 2 times in one week!
Poor ipod pics…
I start up Reformer Pilates again today, very excited, and I’ll try to squeeze in an easy run before the class.

You are going to knock the socks off Boston :)
so glad someone else posts phone pics ;) Way to go on the run you speedy lil' devil!
Good job doing an extra mile!
I have run on a treadmill only once in my life for around 4 min to try it out. I don't remember whether I liked it or not but I always run outside no matter what.
Great job Keri. So, tell me, should I puchase the Run less, Run Faster book?
Cna you promise I run as fast as you?!! :)
Keep it going girl!
Love the Gym in your block, I would live there...
so, it's the tempo runs in this training plan that kind of scare me a little. i'm always eager to do intervals of any kind...but those sustained hard efforts kick my butt something fierce.
i can't believe that you would actually feel so good after two tempo miles you'd opt to make it three! you are amazing!
i'm like you, the treadmill always feels a million times harder than running outside. i know its mental, but i've never gotten past it.
They say that if you put the incline on the treadmill to 1.0, it approximates running on a completely flat surface outdoors (because of the wind resistance I think). But I'm with you - the treadmill is SO boring when you're not going anymore! And somehow I don't find it as easy to watch TV on the treadmill as I do the elliptical (I think because of the extra bouncing motion), so that's not a possibility to distract myself.
