RUN: 5.5 miles in 55 ish minutes.
As indicated, I treadmilled this one. I could have run outside, but I wanted to go to the gym with DH and spend time with him. Even if not "with" him at the gym, we're still together in a way.
The IV YMCA has a different feel that those here in the City. The men at IV are fitter, many of them looking like lean long-distance runners. The women are fitter too. It's such a new looking facility, lots of space, with a large cardio center surrounded by a track. Makes for great people watching. And happily the treadmill I used doesn't have a TV screen up my nose and in my way.
My training plan called for 4 yesterday and 6 today. Since yesterday's actual was 4.5 I left today off at 5.5 miles. I broke the run up into 0.5 mi segments, changing the pace or incline sorta randomly. I kept drifting up into the mills' handlebars, at which time I'd pick up the pace. Running on the treadmill is a great time to focus on form, so I took a few measures there. Sure, it's fake running, but still.
