I have to laugh...my son suggested this morning that I go for a run outside instead of on the treadmill. Last I check the weather (a few min prior) it was 35 degrees with snow on the forecast. Outside, however, it was slightly sunny, slight breeze and LOOKING warmer than 35... so I put on an extra layer and went!
It was a good run! For some people, running outside is a challenge if you're used to the treadmill. Well, the WEATHER is my "challenge," because I actually do a LOT better (pace-wise) on the road! I did a sub-12 min mile, and my other two miles weren't shabby either! Whereas if you look on my treadmill stats, I'm usually doing a 14/15 min mile. I'm just thinking my treadmill sucks! lol. Probably old and not very accurate anymore, but it's all I got!
Anyway, the minute I got inside, it started snowing! Ha! How funny is that! It snowed off and on all day, never really sticking, but I thought the irony was just funny.
With daylight savings around the corner, I'm sure that I'll be heading outside a lot more for my runs, and that's a good thing!
