122408 – A Christmas Eve running

December 24th, 2008 Ted No comments

Stats

  • Distance: 3.2 miles
  • Pace: 11:15/mile
  • Location: Nashville, TN
  • Surface: Treadmill
  • Weather: Indoors!
  • Music: Nightmare Before Xmas (ick!)

I left work and headed out to the club for my noon run. I was looking forward to the movie they would be showing in the “cardio cinema”; perhaps A Christmas Story or The Santa Clause? No, it was “A Nightmare Before Christmas”, what?!?! First of all, this is a truly horrible movie and it is not one to run 3 miles watching!

Despite the crap movie, I ran pretty well, I started @ 5MPH moving all the way up to 6.5MPH. I am still slow, but I am picking up a little bit of speed every day.

Tomorrows goal: I plan on running Christmas Day (outside).

122308 – Back to the Treadmill

December 23rd, 2008 Ted No comments

Stats

  • Distance: 3 miles
  • Pace: 11:30/mile
  • Location: Nashville, TN
  • Surface: Treadmill
  • Weather: Indoors!
  • Music: Knocked Up (movie)

I just totally ripped off Matt’s formatting! (I liked it). So, after a rest day Monday, I was back on the treadmill today. Matt’s blazing fast run yesterday reminded me of how stinking slow I am! My plan is to ratchet up my speed by .2-.3MPH per with an ultimate goal of running 6 Miles @6MPH by April. My legs felt good today and I could have run a lot farther. I ran 20@5.0MPH; 8@5.2, 2@5.5-6.5. I plan on running indoors tomorrow, then outside until the end of the year. Hockey is done until the 4th, so I should be able to get in 6 runs per week!
