Winter Wonderland
Today was one of those days I was extremely grateful I work from home. It was a 2+ hour commute on nearly every expressway/road home today with some being nearly 4 hours! It took me over 20 minutes to go about 2 miles to the gym. Today was also one of those days I wished I had a house with a home gym or at least some cardio equipment. There was no avoiding the treadmill. The first 20 minutes went by relatively quick then the dread started to set. I pushed through to 30 where I told myself I could stop but actually ended up with a nice 40 minute run. It would have been nice to go outside but with no traction on the shoes I wasn't taking any chances. Maybe some other day this week.

Hey you got in a nice 40 minute run, great job. Hope you'll be able to get outside soon.
Well, the treadmill is sometimes a necessary evil when the weather outside is so frightful! Hope the holidays are treating you well.
I have had those days on the treadmill - I feel like the body just needs to get adjusted to running on it again.
Nice job getting on the dreadmill! I'm not looking forward to when the bad weather starts and I'm forced to do the same.
Got screws and a drill? :P
This is going to be my issue when I return to the states for the holidays. There's no snow here in southern England so I don't know how to deal with it. Or find the motivation to run in it. Good on you for getting to the gym!
I remember winters in Chicago! Great job for sticking it out to the gym and getting some miles in. Glad to have stumbled upon your blog ;)
