I have been a runner for
years and I have NEVER completed a treadmill run. I have done some elliptical workouts and I
ride my bike on the indoor trainer but in my mind, running on a treadmill was impossible
for me. I run outdoors in all sorts of
weather conditions, but because of the time change, getting home near dark, and
my recent run-ins with rattlesnakes I decided to give the treadmill at my local
gym a try. I had a 1:08 hill/interval run
planned. I really enjoy interval bike
workouts on my indoor trainer so I thought this would be a good place to start.
Well, I just made up my mind
that I was going to complete the run on the treadmill and I did. Nothing fancy, no deep inspiration, just mind
of matter. It wasn’t that bad but I felt
like I would have run faster outdoors. I
guess it will take me time to get used to it!
I’m I looking forward to my next treadmill run, not really, but I do
look forward to completing workouts. So,
if running on a treadmill is what it takes, then I know that I can do it!
