It was SO HOT inside (at the gym again today).  Usually I bring a water bottle, but I didn't today and I really needed one.  I stopped after mile 4 to get a quick drink.

I warmed up 2 miles, did 1/4 mile fast, 1/4 mile slow for 4 miles, then .5 cool down.  I actually cut my workout a little short.  The treadmill shut down after an hour, so I figured it was a sign.

Haha that would have been my sign too. 8 fast quarters is a tough workout enough!

The treadmills at my office shut down after an hour too. It's a pain. Great workout today!

I hate when it gets so hot inside the gym. That happens at my gym as well. There are not any fans to move the air, Ii always wonder why. Great job getting some good TM miles in this week!

did I miss it? When did you end up getting the gym membership?

Just last week when we had those 2 snow days. And probably just in time. I hear a rumor that we are supposed to get 8-10 inches on Sunday, although that just might be an exaggeration spread by kids who are hoping for a snow day on Monday.
