     Yes folks, back at the treadmill this morning. And yet again, a perfect 27:45 for exactly 3 miles. I thought about kicking it up to 6.7 mph, but this was at 2.15 miles, and it just didn't seem rounded off. It's not so much that I want it to look clean for the blog post, I just seem to want to either do it for the whole mile or not. And, that's probably my type-A OCD personality, but it just feels right. I'm sure there is benefit out of running a little faster for 0.85 miles, rather than not at all. So maybe next time I'll click it up a few notches, even if it's not on the mile.

     So my wife is off to a conference for a few days. I'll see if I can get someone to watch the kids so that I can get in a distance run. It's been 2 weeks, and if I'm gonna do some of these spring half marathons, I need to start getting some distance in. Not that I'm too sad to not have to run 8 miles on the treadmill! We also have some really cold weather coming in, so hibernation sounds like a better game plan than getting out in the cold for running, but eventually it's got to happen!

     Run on my friends. I'll probably see you on the other side of this conference. In the meantime, I hope to have a new podcast or two for those of you who enjoy that part of the web site. Take care, take it easy and keep on running.
