I was supposed to go to the track to do my timed miles today....NO WAY...!!!! 19 Degrees and windy is way too cold for me...! I went to the gym and ran. The problem with that is the treadmills only go at a maximum 6:00 pace....so that's what I ran. I worked on my cadence trying to get my steps up from the normal 168 to about 200. I couldn't do if for the entire time each mile...probably more like 1/3 of the time. I rested two minutes between miles which allowed my heart rate to go down to 110 before I started the next mile. All seemed good excpet I wish the treadmills would go faster and I wish I could run this fast on the track. My track times for the same timed miles is about 30 seconds slower and more draining.
