Treadmill Speedwork

The temps are warming....about 25ish, but that makes the roads slushy and slick, so I decided on a bit of treadmill speed work. 5 X 1 mile at increasing speed starting at 7mph and finishing the last mile at 7.4mph. I felt real good and am excited about the possibilities! Maybe this "spring theory" will work? Next up is at least one more run this week and it has to be a 9 mile MP run. I've had an incredible week! However my heart is still heavy in regards to our family deal. Life goes on! We just need to keep loving each other!! 8 miles/ 1:18:31. Peace!

Glad to hear the treadmill wasn't so bad...it actually sounds like the workout was quite good. Can't heal a heavy heart, but it can certainly boost the spirits.

I'm glad you have running for a little "escape" - sometimes we need that. Great job!!!
