We have a cold front in and it was high 30's this morning.   I chose to go to the Y and use the treadmill.  The plan was for 12 x 400's at a pace of 1:30 - 1:45.   I think the treadmills at my Y are calibrated different and are "easier" than they should be, that said, they will be my saving grace this winter.   

2 mile warm up

1 & 2 @ 6:53 pace

3 - 8 @ 6:49 pace

9 & 10 @ 6:44 pace

11 & 12 @ 6:49 pace

2 mile cool down

Not bad and the on's were not easy, especially the ones at 6:44 pace.  But got it done and it felt good...until I had to run out to my car - FREEZING.   My blood has officially thinned.

In SF for a work meeting last night and an early flight this morning.  Up at 3 am for 30 min on the treadmill and 10 min of squats and upper body.   The hotel we stay at has one of the nicest treadmills I have ever used and I feel guilty if I don't use it, because I make a big deal about staying there and force a everyone else to stay there.   However, it is a sauna in there.   It wasn't so bad during the summer when it was miserable whenever I ran, but now that it is cooled off, it is miserable.
