It's funny, I really hate running but that feeling after a great run is pretty sweet. Because I don't like running to begin with I DEFINITELY don't enjoy running inside. I did it last winter a few days a week because I was training for a tri but other than that I stay away from treadmills and tracks. After the tri in July I ran a few more times into the fall and then stopped. Well, today with the good weather and all I was hankering for a jog so I hit up my 4.4 mile Lake of the Isles loop. I figured i'd time it just to have a bit of a base for comparison. I was hoping for a mile split of about 8 minutes so not too speedy but I was pleasantly surprised w/ a time of 32:40 which is a 7:25 avg. mile! For some that's pretty slow but i finished strong so that made me happy...:crazybanana:
