1-1-2011 - Treadmill Work

January 1 - Happy New Year Everyone! After the December 28 Interval work, I decided to take two days of rest, because it was the first time I ran intervals and my legs were feeling it. I wanted to run again on 12-31, but we had a thaw (temps were up into the 50's), and around here, whenever we get a thaw after a freeze, it stinks. Bad. There was a stench in the air that was hard to get past - rotten leaves, and probably thawing animal carcasses and so forth. So even though the weather was nice, I opted not to run.

Then January 1 ushered in a VERY windy re-freeze. It was so windy I couldn't even catch my breath when standing outside. So, off to the gym for treadmill work.

I had a hard time because I again ate too much protein for breakfast. So I ended up run-walking for 45 minutes and managed to squeeze out 3.0 miles.
