With the sub-zero temps today I opted to run at the Y. My wife and I headed on down this afternoon and I got on the dreaded treadmill. I ran a mile warm up at 9:05 and then did 4 times .15 miles with a .1 rest in between. Total was 2 miles in 17:50
Then I did about 30 minutes of weights.
Now we were out with Kristen and her husband last night and I mentioned that I was going to be traveling to Georgia in March and they said are you going to do a marathon while you are there. Well that got me thinking and I looked it up and sure enough the Atlanta, GA Marathon is March 30th. Hmm, I wonder if I can get that in.

The winter storm watch continues here in Racine and the snow keeps piling up so I was not overly optimistic that I would be running outside today. When I was told that everyone in the office was head out early I decided to call the YMCA and see if they were open. Sure enough they were open just their classes were canceled. So off to the Y I went.
At 4:15 PM on a weekday and one with weather as bad as this the gym was all mine! I jumped onto a treadmill and got to it. Ran 2 miles in 17:50 and once again experienced no chest pains!

Because the weather was crappy I decided I was going to go to the YMCA. My wife said she’d meet me there. I ended up on the treadmill and did 1 mile in 8:58 and then proceeded to do 3 x .25 mile intervals at a 6:58 pace with a .25 mile walk in between each at a 15:00 pace.

With the weather making a turn for the worse it was decided this morning that I would meet my wife at the YMCA for our workout. Ran on the dreaded treadmill for just 1 mile at a 8:54 pace. Then I did about 30 minutes of weights…haven’t done that in a while so I’m going to be sore!!

Too cold to go outside again so we opted for the YMCA. I hate the treadmill but between that and the cold…I’m still not sure!
Did 2.16 miles in 20 minutes.
