Seeking a better country...

On the treadmill.  I have video.  I have sound.  But the tv blinks off after 20 minutes.  It's the tv my son plays x-box on, and I guess it's old, and needs a new bulb or something.  So I watched tivo for 18 minutes, then had to switch over to the small tv for more prison break.  About the running, I put three fast miles cuz I increased the incline and pace and held it for as long as possible.  

Tonight the tv lasted 40 minutes.  For the last couple miles I slowed way down and took the incline to 10.  It was lower impact, but still a good cardio workout.  I was happy to be inside, rather than out fighting a biting wind.

After three straight days of raking leaves and cleaning up yards, I had to get something of a run in.  I mounted up the treadmill, and did a couple, before cranking the incline to 10 and the speed down to 4.  I did that for a couple miles, then ran one more at 8:30 pace, so I could hurry and be done.  My wife was bored with the treadmilling and wanted to watch a movie or something.  One of my son's friends came over, and was startled by the half naked man in the basement.  I had just finished, so she got the sweaty glory.  Between the yard work and snow shoveling on Sunday morning, I'm pretty bushed.  Gotta keep running, though.
