I'm constantly struggling w/injuries so the idea of low mileage intrigues me...Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09524725001492685823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4242345102337084083.post-42676168886231697712011-02-06T19:57:14.200-05:002011-02-06T19:57:14.200-05:00I always look at it as something is better than no...I always look at it as something is better than nothing.

I can remember coming back to the house twice after just finishing one mile, (extreme weather and sickness were the reasons), but I almost always convince myselft to keep going for at least 3 miles.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07485019052088529457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4242345102337084083.post-76837476725753818582011-02-04T10:51:17.677-05:002011-02-04T10:51:17.677-05:00I definitely consider myself a low-mileage runner ...I definitely consider myself a low-mileage runner and I am so happy with only 2-3 miles.

I feel like I"ve gotten a work out, but they dont' take a whole lot of time. I am planning on doing one tomorrow morning!

I do it, but I don't love it. I think as long as you are doing something over these winter months, you will feel great in the spring when the first two miles are behind you and you feel like you could go foreverMiddle Name Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17856868530829001377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4242345102337084083.post-7514440544277569002011-02-03T09:54:16.858-05:002011-02-03T09:54:16.858-05:00If I'm running on the treadmill, the minimum I...If I'm running on the treadmill, the minimum I tell myself is 2 miles or 1 really fast mile. Then I can move on to strength or another cardio machine. Outside, it is 3. But maybe if I reduced the outside minimum to 2, I'd run a lot more! 2 miles is waaay better than none.<br /><br />Getting out there is half the battle for me!
