Goal 15, oops went over :D>    Anyway ran ALL miles at the GYM in Lehi.  Last day of my free trial.  No treadmills available (four broken down) at 555am.  So I hit the indoor track.  Saw Bec, she let me know the outside track  x 8 =  1 mile.  Gross!!  Crowded on the track but doable.   Ran first mile 8:16.  Second mile 8:05.  Third 7:17.  Forth 7:03, last three miles in 22:20 so avg pace 7:26.  Avg for 7 miles =  7:34.  Heard Melanie cheering for me on my last lap.  Good timing.   She wasn't prepared for outdoor running so we hit the TMs.  Got a good one this week after initially starting out on one like last week, and this one happened to be tilting to the left.  Not good.  Glad another TM next to Mel opened up after .2 miles.  Ran 8.5 miles on the TM.  First 8 at avg pace of   7:39, last 1/2 mile cooldown at 9:05 pace.  All the TM miles at 1 % grade.  So loved the company again.  Much nicer in the gym this week.  NOT sweltering and my TM had a built in fan and I had a fan above me. Yay.  So total mileage a whopping 15.7 at avg pace of 7:39.  Whatever.  Not sure why.  Just cause.  I think my antidepressant dose in respect to mileage must be in the 65 to 72 mile range :D.    I feel good.  So far.  Slept well last night.  Work, of course, tonight.  I work every Monday night.

Julie!!! You CRACK me up!!! Your mileage is sky-rocketing! WOWEE!!!You had a terrific week. What are you shooting for this week? Too bad Squaw Peak is 7 months away!

Wow, I was thinking about getting a LC membership...mmm, not sure if I will now after reading about your free trial experience. The TM sounds lame! Man alive! I'd go insane running in circles on a crowded indoor track!

Glad you're sleeping well! YAY for sleep! Have fun cuddling the babies tonight! I'll be thinking of ya while I cuddle my grand-baby...no running this week for me. They don't have a TM. I might run around in circle inside the house, barefooted if and when the toddler and baby are napping (crossing my fingers).

Wow I don't think I could handle all those circles either! Way to go! You are crazy but not at least not depressed haha! That is some serious mileage!
