First weekend of 2015 is officially over - I can't believe I have to go back to school tomorrow!! It's been a lot of fun the past two weeks and I've loved hanging out with Dylan all day BUT I have really been slacking on my running! Oops! I think this challenge really helped to motivate me and get me back on the right track. Since I started it on Friday I have already done 10 miles! 5 outside on Friday and 3 outside on Saturday (it was snowy and beautiful) followed by 2 on the treadmill today. It is always so hard for me to get back on the treadmill after running outside so much so I'm trying to find some fun workouts to do. I have constantly been focusing on speed for the past few months so it is a LOT different for me to not obsess about my average pace for a workout. I guess I'm going to have to let that go for my treadmill workouts this winter...it's impossible for me to just RUN FAST on a treadmill! It's scary (I feel like I'm going to fly off) and it is SUPER boring! Jenie & I have been trying to find some fun treadmill workouts for those super cold/super snowy/ super busy days this winter. We created a board on Pinterest so hopefully we find workouts worth repeating!! Today I did a 20 minute workout that had low speeds but high inclines. I thought it would be really easy (and it was at first) but WOW! In the middle of the workout my legs were exhausted!! I really don't run hills at all, so I think doing some high incline treadmill workouts will actually help my training a lot :)
