Ran on treadmill for 5 miles, and it felt really good.  I think it was faster than normal.

First time running with the Garmin and I LOVE it!  It was great, I definately could've gone faster but I had some interruptions... Oh well.  And I could've gone further (i wanted 9) but it was getting late and dark.  I dont have splits yet becuase I think the only way you can get those is by uploading info. on the computer??

But TT was 1:26:??

Getting up early to run this morning was tough after last nights long run.  But got through it, a little slower than usual. 

Today a friend made a comment to me about how I never used to work out and it bothered me!! Why?! I know its not true, but now I feel like I should work out even more... which is stupid.
