Another 8 miles today, but this time it was outside.  No rain … just low clouds and sunshine … and about 32 degrees when I started out at 9 this AM.  I did the 8 miles in 1:50.  I would have liked it to have been faster, but you can move faster on the treadmill than on the ‘real’ road … and I’ve got some small hills that I go up on my circular route in the neighborhood.  The good thing ’bout the cold weather, my finders didn’t swell up. 

Jeez, only taken some 5 months to write an update to this.  As you can tell, I have NOT been a good boy.
Anyway, trying to get my miles in for the Phoenx RnR 1/2 Marathon in Jan.  Typical NW weather here … raining and the 50s so walking was done on the treadmill at gym.  I put in (according to the Treadmill) 8.5 miles in 1 hour and 55 minutes … using up some 1000 calories.  The treadmill speeds need work, but I’m happy with the calories used
