Weather - 50 degrees, raining. A warm day, but since I ran in the rain yesterday, I thought I would try running on the treadmill at Cardinal. I did my first treamill run about 1 month ago at Michelle's, I thought it a fun way to train, although it did not seem as difficult as regular running. I jogged 1/2 mile to Cardinal, and then hopped on the treadmill. I was planning to run slow and easy, but my legs felt rested and strong and I ended up running 2 miles at 6:30 pace, but 6:30 on a treadmill is similar to 7:15 on the trails, so it did not seem very taxing. I also threw in some elevation spurts which got my heart moving, the monitor had me at 150-155 range, which felt just below threshold. Afterward I did 4 sets of strength exercises, stretching, and 15 minute walk home. #123 z.m. - #37
