treadmill wars

I hate the treadmill. It's boring and for some reason, it's hard for me to run on it. This morning was the last workout before an off-day, but Robillard was closed for a kid's meet, and it was too cold to go outside for this particular session (8x800 in 2:30). So I thought I would try the new treadmills at EV. I managed 50min, with about 10min total running time at 5min/mile pace--half the required load. I just couldn't bear it on the treadmill. I broke it up into 1min on/1min off (the off being at 8min miles). It's not that it is that cold outside, just too cold for a workout. I suppose it might be this cold on April 16th in Boston, but I doubt it. Anyway, I wanted to get a little turnover in.

Also, I am in love with the grocery store cashier. She has a nice ass that is nicely displayed when she turns around to run my debit card through her interac machine...if only that were a metaphor. Anyway, yeah, she changes her hair every week, it seems, and she wears arm socks with the fingers cut out of them to show off her painted nails. She's got a lip-ring, too, which isn't usually my style, but it suits her. She is also very cute when she says "tank you" in English. Mostly though, she speaks in montrealais, which is hot. This has nothing to do with training for Boston, but in a way, everything. After all, I have to eat, too...

There is a reason they are called 'dreadmills'.
