Title: Thursday, February 19th
Post by: caito on February 19, 2015, 10:21:16 AM: 10 miles on the treadmill.

It felt really good. I needed to do that, mentally. Weird, I know.

Off day from running. I took the kids skiing!

Post by: Ice Cream on February 19, 2015, 08:29:05 PM: 7 miles, brutally cold and windy. Luckily, DH drove back from the gym and saw me. He stopped and handed me a balaclava!!! Big help.

I was thinking that, five minutes into my run, I usually regret my choice, when I selected to run on the treadmill. Even in this cold, I did not regret being outside and had no desire for the treadmill.

As much as I dislike the treadmill, when the windchill is in the negative digits, I am going to be indoors. I don't have asthma, but the frigid cold triggers coughing fits and I just can't be doing myself any good forcing myself to run outside in those conditions.

Post by: Eco Ellen on February 20, 2015, 11:00:58 AM: I love running outside when possible. I also love the treadmill under certain conditions, especially if the footing outside is treacherous and I've got strides or tempo or I just feel like wearing shorts and a running bra in the middle of winter.

Post by: Belgian Lace on February 20, 2015, 01:36:01 PM: I'm an unrepentant candyass. I'm happy to hit the treadmill if it's too cold, too hot, too humid, or if my horoscope looks dodgy.
