Rita Hayworth in Gilda. It's amazing how tawdry those old 40's film are.  We think things have really gone down hill in 'modern times'.

I'm starting to worry about how much I run on the treadmill vs. the ground anymore. I only get out every ocassionally. Since today was sunny and mild, I chose to go outside.  But I am currently addicted to my pre-dawn old movie treadmill festivals.  It's no way to train for a marathon.

Ran the first 4 with Jos. It's good to be on the ground and with company. There were lots of runners out. The thaw makes everyone come out of hibernation, also anyone training for an April (like Salt Lake City) Marathon is out. After Jos left, I ran back up and down the canyon to get another 8.  I'm not going to lie, that last mile was painful. The difference between the ground and the treadmill is, well, it's just plain harder.  Also, the air hurt my lungs. Came home, ran another 3 on the treadmill. I ran the first 12 miles 9:40 ap then the last 3 were all 11's.  Getting to 17-20 miles is the hardest part.  It's been a while since I was up into those miles and  while your brain remembers how it used to be, you hamstrings do not.
