A 5 mile treadmill run. With snow and cold from the Beast from the East weather phenomenon I didn’t run weekdays this week, too dangerous. And the race at Bakewell tomorrow has been postponed. So decided to use our new gym membership.

I find treadmills tricky, I’ve fallen off a couple on previous occasions. Partway through the run I tried to extend the time from the initial 30 minutes. The machine responded to that but a second effort to extend it failed.

Followed the run with a quick go on a couple of upper body weights machines.

Treadmill stats:

Distance: 5.37 miles

Time: 52:59

Calories: 615

Trainers: old Brooks Ghost 9

Rather than run round Hyde Park I decided to go on the treadmill in the hotel gym. Built the speed up to ‘6’ and elevation ‘1’ and kept it going for 40 minutes or so.

Distance: probably about 4 miles
Time: 41:03:98
Avg HR: 138bpm
Calories: 482

A nice change to outdoor running but don’t plan to do this or the cycle machine very often. I miss the varied speed and cool environment, sweating buckets indoors!

Slight niggle right calf, might not be as bad as usual but it’s still there.
