Indoor Brick II: The Run
Treadmills. Bah!
I don’t like ‘em, don’t enjoy the boredom, and don’t do it unless I have to. Send me outdoors, and I’ll run no-matter what the weather for an hour or so. Indoors, more than ten minutes is torture.
Today was better - I’d brought some headphones, and plugged into the gym’s sound system. So I could watch the news / weather / Transformer’s interview on CNN. Still felt like a lot further than 5k though . . .
Workout:
- Type: Run
- Date: 07/27/2007
- Total Time: 00:24:00.00
- Distance: 3.11 miles
- Average Pace: 7:43.32/mile













I’m with you. I’d rather be outside. Even headphones don’t cut it for me on the treadmill. Drives me nuts.
This past winter, I was even running outside when it was 9F (-13C) with a stiff wind pushing the wind chill below 0F (-18C).
It’s running in weather like that makes you glad to be alive . . . actually probably quite surprised to be alive when you get to the end!
