Treadmill Runs at the Hilton



Hello to you!

I was sort of excited about running in Chicago, but then the weather had to be like 24 degrees with a windchill of 12. That is not fun for running at all. Plus, I did not bring heavy enough clothing to run under 20 degrees, so I just decided to make due with the treadmills at the hotel.

Q = 5, E = 5

Easy run on the treadmill at the hotel. Felt okay. Legs did not really feel any different than usual, which means I recovered from Friday's 17 miler. There was a mirror in front of me, so I could watch my running form the whole time.

Q = 4, E = 7

Another run on the treadmill. The first 20 minutes seemed to go by really slow. Wanted someone to come in and run or walk on the treadmill next to me.

Did not make my goal of 70 this week. Had I run yesterday, I could have made it, but then I was really tired at night and started falling asleep at 9 PM, so there was no run. It is okay though. I plan to run A LOT this next week...who even knows how many miles it will be? Any guesses? Whoever gets closest to it will get a prize of some sort.

The only goals are to try and get in as many miles as possible this week. If all goes well that is.

Yes, I will be back in Neb. for a short while. Perhaps near the end of summer. Not really sure yet. When do you move west?

My guess for your mileage will be 92.

Chicago? Did I miss something? What happened to the cornfields?

I guess a baby girl after 11 hours of labor on thursday... oh wait, wrong guess topic.

I'll say 73.4 miles.
