1/21/2012 - 3.5 mile run on the treadmill

There is still plenty of snow and ice on the roads and my wife wanted to go to the gym. I decided that I should use the opportunity to do my 3.5 mile run on the treadmill. There were lots of people there, and it is a small gym...so it was hot and someone smelled pretty bad. Generally it doesn't bother me, as that is an inherent property of a gym...however It made me think that the smell was coming from me, and I kept feeling like people were thinking that even though I knew who the smell was coming from. So I did 3.5 miles in 27:something. I was really hot afterwards and wasn't able to do any other exersize, so I just hopped on the cycle trainer until my wife was finished with her workout. This is the most ongoing running that I have done, so I am encouraged by that. I am looking forward to getting outside. Since I live in a very hilly area, I will only be able to run here for shorter runs and longer runs I will have to drive somewhere to do.
