I have been trying to run outdoors even though the trails are completely covered in snow and the weather (until this last weekend) has been a little chilly. I think my problem is that since I am a beginner I don't want to "deceive" myself into thinking I can run a 12 min mile when really it's more like 15 min mile (I know, pretty slow...). I have found myself moving inside more this week but am hoping this weeks predicted warm weather will have me outside again.<br />It will get better for you as the sun starts to come up earlier and it gets warmer :-)!akjenniekthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11083245173768904065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4242345102337084083.post-69412127807310537372010-03-15T22:54:08.066-04:002010-03-15T22:54:08.066-04:00If you enjoy the treadmill, why don't you cont...If you enjoy the treadmill, why don't you continue using it?

I also noticed that it was hard for me to start running on the treadmill in the fall/early winter and its been hard for me lately to get outside. I'm glad i'm not alone and I'm glad you made a post about this because I feel the exact same way!!! :)<br /><br />Maybe it will be in the 60s and that will be enough to drag our TM loving bootys outside! ;)Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11825097650104995097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4242345102337084083.post-24936491217188354212010-03-15T19:43:15.791-04:002010-03-15T19:43:15.791-04:00I could not wait to give up the treadmill!
