So I was a super slacker this morning and totally bailed on my friend Cheri! I slept horrible (stupid restless legs I get) and 4:30 came way too early today. So I punished myself my heading straight to my in-laws basement right after work to run on their treadmill. It was very hot and stuffy, my shins were hurting and I couldnt get their TV to work so my entertainment was staring into a closet looking at Jody's wedding dress (I think it was your dress jody). Super exciting huh? I only made it 5 miles. I then came home ate some dinner, did my weights, watched some of the olympics and then about 8:30 headed back out for a 6.7 mi run. I felt fantastic on the run and it really wasnt too hot. So glad I got it done but it sure would have been easier if I just would have gone this morning and then just taken a short power nap after work. Live and learn I guess...

5 mi TM pace 8:00

Excellent miles! Way to get them in. Very creative :) I have never tried watching a dress on the treadmill. Maybe that would make it more tollerable? ;D

That is horrible - I am sorry you had to run on the treadmill w/ no TV. Unfortunately it was not my dress - They brought it to my house the last time they came up. Mine would have conjured up wonderful 80's memories.
