(Yes, I know I had said I was going to hide all my exercise stuff from the blog, but it requires either a plugin or code, and it is not a high priority (but will be done eventually). To compensate, I have included a stock photo of a treadmill with this post to make it more visually interesting, if not stunning.)
Today I debated whether to go outside for a run. It looked like it would be around -5C to -3C in the morning and while that is better than -9C, I dithered long enough that I defaulted to the treadmill.
I kept the incline and speed the same as before, but after hitting 3 km, I started getting fidgety, and instead of stopping, I cranked the speed from 6.7 to 8.7. You can only walk at 8.7 if you have giraffe legs, which I do not. So I ran for about the last km and stopped at 4K, which is also a fine resolution.
The running part was not as horrible as I remembered, so I might just do a run from the start the next time I am on the treadmill.
Wednesday is calling for 0-2C in the morning with a chance of rain or snow, so I am uncertain where I will be running, but we’ll see!
Speed: 6.7-8.7 (6.7) Incline: 1 (1) Pace: 8:14/km (8:30/km) Time: 33:09 (30.00) Distance: 4.03 km (3.53 km) Calories burned: 387 (292) BPM: 142 (129)
