Noon - why is it that outdoor runs seem more relevant than the treadmill?  anyway, enjoyed a nice 6.55 mile jaunt on the Parkway.  very spring-like weather.

Noon - climbed on the TM and almost quit after in the first mile.  it seems the best way to get thru a boring and monotonous TM run is to progressively crank up the speed.  eventually made it to 5.0 miles (6.3 to 8.6 mph range)

Late PM - TM (0%) - 5.0 @ 8:34 pace

Noon - TM (0%) - 1 mile warmup, 5.0 @ 7.5 to 8.6 mph, 0.5 cooldown

How about this for a running magazine idea?  I'll sift through a bunch of old articles on training plans, stretches and nutrition, then repackage and regurgitate the same info each month with new titles.  If only there was a publication out there like this...

Noon - Treadmill again.  Lots of speed changes and mental pace calculations to keep it interesting.  Even so, it was a bit boring.  6.0 miles - 8:24 avg 

Late PM - Treadmill - some inclined walking, then ran for a bit.  very tired and not too enthused that late at night.  2.5 miles @ 8:40 ish
