Time to hit the road!

Posted by Blake | Posted in Stuff | Posted on 03-04-2008

I hit the road this morning. I’ve been thinking of running the Double Decker 10K later this month. So I’ve ran a few times on the treadmill. But this morning I took it to the streets.

And how quickly did I remember how different treadmills are from pavement! Especially with hills. Plus I ran about double the distance that I have on the tmill. I always want to quit early (way early) on a treadmill. It seems quite boring. But if you’re out on the road, I just run until I get back usually.

But now I have a few weeks to get ready for the run.

@Emily-Is it because of the hills? I remember running a race around campus back in 99 and it was quite tough because of the hills. I came in 2nd to last.

I've heard that's a really tough run. The hills, I suppose.

Happy running, Blake! Let me warn you, the Double Decker run is fierce. But there's barbeque when it's done! Good luck
