A few weeks ago, when the mercury began dipping, I decided I needed to do my running on the treadmill… It’s been working, but after 3.5 miles I get incredibly bored even with my music and keeping my visual field busy with the TV on. So, I decided after last Thursday’s treadmill workout to move [...]

Another Good Workout

Marian — Thu, 09 Dec 2010 18:28:08 +0000

It was another good workout. I began week 8 of the Couch to 10K program. Day 8.1 consists of a 5 minute warm-up, then run 5 minutes followed by a 1 minute walk x10… I ran on the treadmill today… Not my optimal choice, but with tee cold weather it’s been my alternative. I was [...]

Decided to try a little something different today! I did an interval Walk / Run on the Monte Sano 5k Course. It was really good, I can’ wait to do it again later in the week!

Finally Over It!

It all began the night /evening before Thanksgiving! That feeling. You know, like you’re coming down with something.
