Training: October 14, 2009

Distance: 7 miles
Time: 60:44
Pace: 8:41 mile

Rain again; treadmill again; soaking shirt again.

Today’s run was fine. I’m finding it really difficult to run inside, though. All the moisture from the other runners ups the humidity in the room and there’s no air flow. Even though my gym has air conditioning and fans, it’s not quite the same as the the outdoor air. Plus, it’s more fun to run outside! It feels more exciting (or less boring). There’s something very liberating about blazing a trail outside by foot.

The rain is supposed to subside tomorrow, just in time for hill work. I really don’t want to have to adjust my hill work for a treadmill!
