I ran the race course that I will be running Saturday this morning.  What's nice it starts at our University Football Stadium. and ends there.  The gym is right next door where I can take a shower and go to work.  I get in free because I'm an University State employee, which is nice because I don't have to drive all the way home take a shower then go to work.

Back to the run....
I took the first two uphill miles easy (which I'll probably do in the race 6:54, 6:54) then I started to pick it up (5:47, 5:24, 5:47) and the last uphill mile at 6:08.  After that I ran 4 cool down miles (6:44, 6:57,6:30,6:58).  Its a fun route except for the first two uphill miles and the last uphill mile.  

Total 10.05 miles at a 6:25 pace in 1:04

This might be the fastest all run it than the actual race, because I might have to work from 9pm Friday night to 7am Saturday morning, and the race starts at 8am Saturday morning.  We have to bring down everyone of our computer systems at our University for a power upgrade, which has never been done before, so I'm thinking it's going to take time to bring them down and up, and I'm sure there will be issues.  I'm hoping this won't take all night, but if it does I'll be doing the race on tired dead legs.  

 14 - 16 miler tomorrow on Pocatello marathon course (early, dayoff).

Kory,

The run to work is 17.7 round trip. I cheat and put the total up early. It takes roughly 1.5 hours to get to work, a little less going home (except today it's so hot it might take a little longer). I generally leave the house around 5:15 and am at my desk by 7:00am. I'm desperately trying to rack up some big miles in the last few weeks before my 100K in August.

My husband bought us a treadmill from the Smooth line for christmas this year, he did a lot of research and thats what he came up with. I think that he was sold on the warranty also. Were happy with it, but never had one before so really nothing to compare it too. Still run outside at all costs, but if I must run inside I'm definately glad to have it around.

Kory,

My treadmill is a NordicTrack Elite 3200 modle. It's pretty nice with a built in LCD TV and MP3 hook up. I won one last year in the STGM and then just paid a little more to get a nicer one. It works great for a treadmill but it is hard for me to handle more than around 7 miles on it.
