Indoors at St. Mike's.  10 miles.....80 laps.....  Tough to keep my sanity.  My trick is to wear my Ipod and only look at my watch at the beginning of a song.  I don't count each lap.  I'm averaging around 8:00/miles, so I know I need to hit the lap counter when I get close to 8:00.  I'd run on this little 1/8 mile indoor track before I 'd consider treadmill running.  I've done my share of TM training and can't stand it. 1:14:57, 7:30/mile, 142BPM.

St. Mike's indoor track.  5 miles easy. 38:22, 7:40/mile, 138BPM

My first entry.  Winter is beginning to take hold in Vermont, so I plan on doing much of my running indoors.  I grew up in Arizona and I still have a tough time running outside if it's below freezing.  I plan on building my base mileage through the winter so I can introduce some quality work in the spring.

Easy 6 miler at the St. Mike's College indoor trakck.  It's about 10 degrees and breezy outside.  The roads are still a little dicey from the storm a couple days ago.  47:05, 7:51/mile, 134BPM.

Another 8 inches of snow last night.  Spent the morning shoveling snow with Anne.  Decided to brave the roads and run outside.  It's about 10 degrees.  I ran slowly due to poor traction and because I didn't want to sweat too much.  51:55, 8:18/mi, 135BPM
