Total Distance
2.00

Went to the gym and lifted for 45 minutes (upper body/core) and had a great workout. Then I decided to run the track instead of the treadmill. I got in 2 miles, and everything felt great. I was VERY slow, but at least I got off of that dang TM. Now I just need a good run outside.

Nice job. Winter makes things difficult. Not only is it cold outside, the trails are buried, but because there are no more races scheduled it can be easy to get lazy and not want to run. It is where I have been for the last week and a half. That's why I started working on my 2010 goals last night and, BAM, totally psyched to get out and run again. Ha.

Lets get out for a long run soon. There has to be some good trails that aren't covered yet.

I bet we could run the pipeline trail in millcreek. Or maybe we should do something more challenging and run the first half of the Wasatch Steeplechase trail (from city creek up to the base of Little Black Mountain). or we could just run city creek trail up into the hills. I've always wanted to wrestle with a mountain lion.

hmmmm...I am not sure i like the track better than the treadmill! how many time around do you have to go to equal a mile?? I guess the cjange of scenery is good.

Nice work!! Where do you go that has an indoor track?

Jun- I am up for anything. I need to get out and do something hard and challenging. I need some good outdoor miles.

Kellie- I'm not a huge fan of the track either, but I did want to get off of the TM. I run at the American Fork Fitness center, and it is 12-15 laps for a mile, depending on which lane you're in. I really need to get outside.

From Kelli on Sun, Nov 22, 2009 at 17:08:43 from 71.219.71.229

That is a lot of laps. Make sure to switch up your direction if they will let you! I did 18 miles at the oval in Kearns last winter and really hurt myself because i did not think to switch up my running direction!!!

Thanks for the tip Kellie. I never would have thought of that, but it makes sense.

Me neither! But I learned...
