I think it is hard to run on the treadmill fast!!! I am so slow on those things, yet I feel like I am near death!

GREAT WEEK! Thanks for the 50 miler advice, it will happen sometime next year (with a friend for sure), just trying to figure out which one to try!

Ran on the treadmill. It was a tough day for my head! Legs said go and head said rest. Ran 8 miles the first 3/4 of every mile at a 9:30 pace and the last 1/4 of every mile at an 8:49. Avg pace turned out to be a 9:20. Finished 1:14:47.  I know Im supposed to keep my long runs slow between 9:30 and 10:30 but I just couldnt do it....wanted to be done today. Im sure ill pay for it later in the week when I do my tempo run.

I've always been scared of the hill program on the treadmill, even though I run hills outside all the time. So good job on that hill workout.
