Indoor Running

Monday 5.0 miles/49:05/9:49 average pace

I was forced inside by the rain yesterday- lots and lots of rain all day long. Usually I don't really mind the rain but it was really pouring. The treadmill actually wasn't so bad after all, the miles went by pretty quick. My right knee/leg felt kind of tight at first but that went away. I'll keep an eye on it tonight.

After the treadmill I did some leg and core strength training including hamstring push up and squat "sits" on the half-ball for legs, and crunches for core. I stretched too and then sat in the steam room.

Quick side story- when I first got to the gym, the cardio area looked really busy but there was no one in the pool. So for a fraction of a second I thought about swimming instead of running. What's happening to me!?!? :D
