late start morning. I  was hibernating : D.  Got to the rec at 930am with my poor husband who had to run extra just waiting for me to finish.  Also--- I got in a POLITE argument with the TM cleaner-guy.  He turned off several TMs and I told him HE COULD NOT DO THAT TO ME AND that he should talk to the front desk woman who knows I always get my runs in and blah and blah and blah.  Finally since he heard I was running 12 miles (probably in shock) he let me turn my TM on.  By the end of my run he only had to wait about 8 minutes for me to finish.  He had finished cleaning all the other TMs in the room and I was last.  He was in his 20s and his dad was supervising.  Anyway plan was (and I stuck to it) to run easy progressive run.  Not part of the plan was keeping the incline at 2 percent the whole time.  So some extra work needed on my part.  But it still felt easy.  Progressive miles-- 8:57, 8:49, 8:41, 8:34, 8:27, 8:20, 8:13, 8:06, 8:00, 7:53, 7:47, 6:44 to 7:41 pace for last mile all the while the boy parked in front of my TM waiting patiently to clean it : D.  AP for 12 = 8:14.  2 % incline.

Gotta love how easy a TM makes a perfect progression run, huh?

WHY would they clean the treadmills while people wanted to use them? They should be there in the hours when no one is there!
