| total time 58:03. on treadmill again yeah!!! started treamill at 0.01 distance and 6 miles in 56:53. deliberately held it down at beginning so that I could negative split. splits 9:59, 9:41, 9:31, 9:23, 9:20, 9:00. this is probably the best work-out I have had in awhile. I had a find behind me and a ceiling fan. I had pushed the temp down in the hosue too. It is at least 10 degrees hotter outside.
