Ok all you track fans I give you the new definition of running in circles. The normal track is 1/4 mile around...hence 4 times equals a mile.....24 times equals 6 miles. Right?, Right!!!! Today is Wednesday....I ran 4 miles on the treadmill on Monday due to our fine weather here in Alabama! Today was the same thing only this time I had to get in 6 miles, according to my chart. Ok fine I can't run outside and I REALLY don't want to run 6 on a treadmill..yuck ..so thats right they have a track at the gym going around the top, inside the building. GREAT! I can run a flat, fast 6 miles. HERE IT COMES..........................READY.................................... 102 laps around equals 6 miles!!!!!! HOLY SHIT!!!!! According to their sign , 1 mile equals 17 laps, therefore 102 equals 6 miles. So I ran 6 miles in a small continuous circle. Whew! I am so glad I am done and I finnished under an hour.
The downfall other than running in circles 102 times is..after so many you start saying to yourself, did I say that number already? am I on that number lap? on no I lost count, I will just addd another one on just to be safe. In the end I know I did at least 104, but I am guessing more like 110. I pray to the rain gods to please, please rain in the morning so I can run on the road at night,please and thank you!
Tomorrow is another planned 4 mile run and then 12 miles on Saturday. Till then....
