Inside or Out

Only 17.48 miles to go!

Yesterday's run was a hills run for 40 minutes and 3.52 miles. Last month I purchased a DVD called Runtervals. This is a treadmill run using the incline for hill work. I can't quite keep up with their speed on the inclines but I had a good work out. I was out of breath and sweating.

This morning's run was an easy run for only 30 minutes and 2.51 miles. This run was sandwiched in between two 40 minute runs. Slowly but surely I'm making up the miles from getting behind the last two weekends. Let's hope I stay on schedule. There are only six more scheduled runs for this month.

This week I'm running in the morning so that means I'm on the treadmill since it's still very dark when I get going. Last week I ran to the "bottom" so I was on the trails, roads and hills.

This time of year I really love running on the farm. The birds are out and singing. Everything is green and leafed out. The cows are grazing. When the baby calves see me running, they jump up and run off with their tales straight in the air. I laugh every time. They are so cute. I always keep an eye on the mother cow. You never know when she will feel her baby is threatened and come after me.
