Sprints on the treadmill this morning.  Really tired. Too much coke lately :)  Hoping to be outside later this week :)

Ran at a 6.5 on the treadmill this morning for 30 minutes.  Probably could have gone outside today.  Probably should have.  It would have felt much better than the treadmill.  I let myself sleep in a few extra minutes so that was all I did this morning, no Jillian.  Went to bed a little late last night and had a busy day yesterday.

Well, I won't be writing about running on the treadmill anymore.  Yes, the weather is getting nicer, but that isn't the reason.  I got on to use it this morning and I think it has run it's last leg (no pun intended :) )  It was very jerky, so much so that I didn't dare not hold on for fear of falling off.  It's had this quirk in the past, but it's been quick and gone away.  I thought it would work itself out, but everything I tried gave no good results.  So, I guess it's just one less thing to pack to Texas :)  We've had it for over 6 years and never done any maintenance on it, and it's been well used.  So, I can't complain, really.  This is just my wake up call to get my sorry butt out of bed in the morning and start hitting the pavement.  I like that better anyway :) 

I thought I was out of luck for exercising after that happened, but I got lucky and the kiddos left me alone for a few minutes so I popped Jillian in instead.  Glad I had the option of something else as I was disappointed I was not going to get a workout in today.  The next few days should be beautiful, so I will head outside.  Looking forward to it :)

Got outside today.  It was a balmy 37 degrees when I left - BRRRR!!!  Ran my 4 miles in 33:55, so felt pretty good about that.  Maybe I ran it fast because I was so cold ;)

Decided to go out again this morning for another 4.  Not sure if I'll get out tomorrow morning or not, as our soccer games begin at 8:30 a.m.  I was kind of sore yesterday after my run, so decided to take it easy today.  At least the weather was warmer this  morning, in the 50's, so I wasn't freezing to death!  Finished my run about 3 minutes slower than yesterday, but that's okay.  Felt good just to get out and do an easy one this morning.
