Favorite Blogs:
5 miles on the treadmill.
Treadmill with a 2% incline.
5 miles on the treadmill at 5-10% incline.
Eleven mile trail run throuh the snow, mud, ice, puddles, even a couple stream crossings. Exilerating! A lot of slipping and slidding, but it sure beats the heck out of trudging on the treadmill.
