OK, so I guess I wasn't too serious about feeling guilty for using the treadmill for my speed work-outs. Well, closer to the truth, I'm not strong enough to overcome my desire to use the treadmill for my speed work-outs. Today I did a 1 1/2 mile warm-up, 6x800 with an easy 400 between and then a mile cool-down all on the treadmill. It really was snowing pretty good outside and would've been pretty slippery to run on...really it would have been really, really hard...super hard...i'm a wimp! Anyhow, I did the 800's at 3:15. The first few steps at the 3:15 pace each time made me feel a little panicky and then it eased in and wasn't as bad as I was imagining it would be on my way over.
I was kind of glad to have to drive over to the gym anyway. Aaron Burr has finally killed Alexander Hamilton on my book on tape. I've got to take the book back to the library tomorrow and I was afraid I wouldn't even get through the duel. Nothing like killing two birds with one stone - I mean running and finishing a book. 29 days until the husband comes home (his leave date was pushed back just a smidgen - I can deal with smidgens).
