Another day on the treadmill, nothing really exciting to report. I spent an hour on it and did about 7.4 miles. My heart rate stayed around 145 for the run. One interesting thing I noticed was that when I walk to cool down my heart rate drops to about 105. That is about 15bpm less than it used to be when I would stop and walk after a run.

Spent another hour on the treadmill this morning. I don’t know if there is anything more boring. Running on the treadmill for an hour feels like running outside for an hour and a half to me. There are four TVs on the wall where I run and the are tuned to all the various news stations. Unfortunately they all repeat the news every 10 minutes so I ended up watching everything 6 times!!!! I definitely have to get out on the road at some point this weekend. The Great Bay Half-marathon is coming up in early April so I have to start getting my long outside runs back in, hopefully we will get some warmer weather and melt some of the snow and ice on the sidewalks by the gym.

Unfortunately the weather is not cooperating enough to get out in the morning for an early run yet, so it was back on the treadmill. I was on it for an hour today, might be a record for me. The weather is looking good for the rest of the week though, so hopefully there will be plenty of melting and I’ll be able to get out on the weekend.

Yup, had to do it today. The sidewalks and roads were just too dangerous to go out running so I had to use the treadmill. Went down to the Danvers Y and ran for 45 minutes on it before it inexplicably stopped. I took that as a sign I should stop and that was it for today. Hopefully at some point this weekend I will be able to get back outside for a run.
