Bad news - The televisions at Fitness First do not have the NFL Network. So no game for me on my run this evening.
However, I did run. I decided to make it a hill run, so I hopped on the treadmill and chose the Hill program. It asked for what level 1-20, so I chose 15. Holy crap! The thing started out at a 5.5 incline and maxed out at 11.3. I kept my speed slow and fought through it. I thought about bailing on the hill program after a mile - then again after 1.5 miles, 2 miles and at the 2.5 mile mark - but I just kept on going. I may be a bit sore tomorrow...but I'm hoping it helps out during the initial (hilly) miles of the Turkey Chase...

The last time I ran a treadmill (one of only a half dozen times I have ever run on one) at a hotal in Tampa, I was looking at the clock every twenty seconds (I had determined to do 30 minutes). Talk about Are-We-There-Yet! If it had been a hill incline that steep, I would have been checking out the clock every 5 seconds!
