Shorts and Socks and Tops, Oh My!

Somehow the dirty laundry pile has multiplied exponentially this week - especially the dirty running clothes!  When I was changing this evening, there were no clean shorts or capris to be found...  So I went for a pair of running tights I recently purchased, but hadn't worn yet.  I was worried that I would be too warm running in them inside on the treadmill, but the good news is that I figured out that when you get hot in running tights, you can just stop, pull up the ankles, and turn them into capris!

Today's stats:

• 0.52 mi warm-up walk
• 3.0 mi treadmill run; 40:36 min; 13:32 min/mi

Split Decision

There was no way I was doing 8 miles on the hilly gravel trail this weekend, so I split the long run into two shorter runs: I did 4 miles outside on the trail, then immediately followed up with 4 miles on the treadmill.

Saturday's stats:

• 0.57 mi warm-up
• 4.0 mi trail; 0:52:28 min; 13:07 min/mi
• 4.0 mi treadmill; 0:54:52 min; 13:43 min/mi
