Total Distance

6.00

40 min's on the elliptical. 2 miles on the treadmill. I decided to try some easy treadmill running at the gym today. The hammy was a little tight but I just stayed with a very smooth stride and after I was done it didn't hurt at all. So I may try a little running on the treadmill this week so if it does start hurting I can jump off instead of being out on a run and having it act up and then still having to get back home.

After the weights and core workout I went and spent about 15 min's in the sauna. The temp was cranked up to around 185 and I poured a bunch of water on the rocks to "heat" things up a bit... Wow. I forgot what that was like. I was sweating buckets and finally had to get out because I was getting a little dizzy. I think I'll try it again tomorrow but a little less intense.

Spent the rest of the day delivering F1 gifts to around 50 of our clients here in town.

I find that the treadmill doesn't hurt me compared to outside running. I think you can focus on form better. It just stinks running indoors.

Clyde what is your company F1, and what do you do? We had a foot of snow fall here yesterday, its just lovely! I just wanted to give you a boost to your moral!!!

Josse- Your right running indoors sucks.

Clay- F1 is a property management company my wife started 4 years ago. We manage HOA's (home owners associations), retail projects and other commercial business projects.

By the way thanks for the moral boost. They are always welcome!
