In New Hampshire USA at the moment. Now if you want to run outdoors where I am its a bit difficult
1) Its really really cold
2) There does not appear to be any footpaths ANYWHERE
3) I dont know where i am
SO - 4.5 miles on the treadmill. Actually I find running on them extremely tedious and surprisingly hard - probably because Im always clock watching or better, chick watching
I was in one of those huge shopping malls earlier and there wasnt a staircase anywhere. You had to use escalators to go up or down- same in the hotel.
Its not even like you can choose to use the stairs - there isnt any
Thank the lord I am not black or I would have been writing this from my place in heaven!!!! Today I went running in Salt Lake City, Utah at 5.15am. 9Had to go early, busy day planned with skiing) Running was good at that time as there was no one else out other than car drivers. I had been out for 10 miles on Sunday and had no problems. Today I did a different route. I ran for 15 minutes in one direction and then turned back. When I got to 13 minutes in to the run I heard some one shout at me but I ignored them. Then they shouted 'Sir, I instructed you to stop, I suggest you stop now'. At that point I stopped, turned round and was signaled to come over to the man shouting at me. Over I went and then the questioning began. 'What business do I have to be running here?', 'Do you work for the Government?' All I tiold him was I was going skiing today and was having a morning run. He suggested I turned round now and head the other way. Little did I know I was trying to run in to the home of some fighter jet place which the USA airforce did not fancy me entering and having a look at. So, this morning I did 5 miles, then skied all day long on the best snow and resort I have been to. The home of the Winter Olympics 2002, Salt Lake City, Utah. The ski centre was amazing. The place was carpeted throughout, the bathrooms had gold plated everything. A little different to other ski resorts I have been to. Then tonight I did 5 miles on the running machine which was boring but safer than the morning run.Quote:

More running and skiing tomorrow.
Ajohns, pop over to Utah for a run. Loads of paths, just not very interesting running on the roads.

Whilst you're running at altitude i managed 9 miles off road around Tandle Hill and the surrounding area.:cool:
13 miles road. Exactly the same route as last midweek. Am a little
disappointed to run just 15 seconds faster than last time but i think the effort was more consistant throughout - may even have ran a slightly faster 2nd half which is certainly better than blasting off and then dieing towards the end.
The best thing is how fresh i feel after this. Once upon a time running 13 miles of an evening would have seen me good for nowt and in bed by the back of 9pm.
7ish miles road.
Horrible. was exhausted from the minute I started running til I got back home. Every run seems like that lately and it is really disheartening :(
64 lengths of free-style at the new 25 metre pool at Harpurhey during the adult lane swim session this morning. Feel invigorated and refreshed now. :cool:

Sounds like overtraining to me, being generally run downQuote:
