I guess I could have took it inside on the treadmill but it is just not the same. I never set intervals while running on the treadmill but it does sound a lot easier than to always be adjusting it. I will have to see if the one I use at the gym has a setting like that.Fairytales and Fitnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02523381883953946478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1450866457385584358.post-49438081893044597512017-05-08T03:48:30.264-04:002017-05-08T03:48:30.264-04:00I feel like I'm constantly in a running rut! h...I feel like I'm constantly in a running rut! haha! but my last real rut was right after the Athens marathon. I think I went 10 days or something without running! <br /><br />at my gym it's not clear if the treadmill options can be used the way you used them and I go to a really cheap gym so asking anyone who works there a question is kind of an exercise in itself... I haven't run on a treadmill in absolute ages - I really try to avoid it where possible. <br /><br />The Breaking2 was very exciting; admittedly I had my doubts but now they are so close... and how is it that some of these guys still look so fresh after running this hard????Renee @pinkypiehttp://lowfatpie.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1450866457385584358.post-26937886750898053902017-05-08T01:11:27.344-04:002017-05-08T01:11:27.344-04:00Yes, I LOVE using the workout options on a treadmi...Yes, I LOVE using the workout options on a treadmill! I've had to use the YMCA for the last two years since my daughter is able to attend the drop-in childcare, allowing me to workout. The hills option is always nice, but only goes up to 3% incline.
