I didn't run the full time today because I played around with increasing the incline and upping the speed a little bit.  It still felt good though!

I was able to up the speed a little bit today and still run the entire 3.25 miles.  Yeah for me!

I actually did pretty well today.  I upped my speed to 6.7 and maintained it for the entire run.  Time constraints were the only reason I didn't go farther.  It was basically an extra run day anyways.

I did something to my lower left leg last week, so I laid low over the weekend.  Today I went for slow and easy.  I ran for just under 2 miles, walked for .75 miles, jogged for .5, walked for .25, jogged for .25, then did my .5 mile cooldown.  My leg seemed to be better, just a little sore.

Had some problems with my breathing again today, but I pushed through them and ran the full 3.25 miles in just under 30 minutes.  The cool down felt really good.

Thursday are turning into a random, run if I can, day.  Today I decided to try out the fat burning program on our treadmill.  It was actually pretty fun.

Today was a really good run for me.  I ran 4 miles in just under 37 minutes, then did a cool down.  Yeah for me!

I didn't go running today, but I did go skiing for about 4 hours.  I just counted that.

Did a mix of the weight loss program and speed walking.  Did 2.65 miles on the program (speed up to 6.3 and incline up to 6), then walked 1.5 miles at 5 mph.  The incline about did me in, but it felt good overall.  I'm hoping for a long, stead run tomorrow morning.

Today I decided to try and figure out my splits.  The first mile is always the slowest since it includes my warm-up walk.  My splits were 9:49, 9:11, and 9:00.  I ran 3.5 miles in 32:00 then did a half mile cool down.  I'm starting to feel like I'm finally finding my groove on this treadmill.  yeah for me!

Today I just did the weight loss program (speed up to 6, incline up to 5), then walked a little bit when it was done.

Today was a weird day.  I ended up running 3 miles in 27:47, then walked another mile with the incline set to 2.  I only did a .25 mile cool down and spent some extra time stretching.

More stomach issues kept me from running yesterday.  I think I see a specialist in my near future because this is getting ridiculous.  Today I'm feeling almost normal again, so I wanted to get a long run in.  Everything was done with an incline of 1.  I ran 2.15 miles (6.6 mph), walked .85 (5.0 mph), ran 1 mile, walked .25, ran .75, then did a .25 cool down.  The total time for everything was 52:30.

This week was not my best.  Today I tried to get a longer run in.  I ran 2.5, then alternated walking .5/running .5 the rest of the run.  I finished in 51:35
