Treadmill tips.

Hey guys,
   Tyson, Mary and Tiff may not have this problem down south, but the rest of us further north are dealing with the bad weather.  If you're like me, ya can't stand the treadmill, but some days it's the only option.  I did 50 minutes on one yesterday and almost fell asleep.  Plus, I feel like I'm goin' 100 mph on the treadmill and it says I'm 1-2 minutes slower than what I run outside. Frustrating!

Here's an article about how to make your treadmill runs more realistic to the road.   Also, it is a good idea for those of you with some uphill runs to set your treadmill to the grade that is posted at the bottom of your assigned legs.  

Yeah I forgot how to add a link to a post. :)  I added it to the running links posted on the right. Could somebody please remind me how to add a link to a post? It's been a while.

I also posted Jeff Galloway's page on the Running Links because I'm currently using his program for the SLC half  (April 18th), Bryce Canyon Half Marathon(July), Park City Marathon(August 22nd) and HOPEFULLY the St. George Marathon(October 3rd).
