    4/1 - Start month on rest day, plus it's Easter = no burn + a lot of calories / hot cross buns.
    4/2 - 4 treadmill miles + upper body weights/abs.
    4/3 - Unplanned rest day.
    4/4 - 4 treadmill miles, then weights and abs.
    4/5 - 4.25 treadmill miles. Trek Class.

    12.25/110

    Hrm. 27mph steady winds here, with showers and snow. Probably not a run outside kind of day.

    Ah come on, that's good for building mental toughness! (... says the girl who is working from her balcony today because SPRING)

    Ha! Yeah, sure... but I did TEN MILES on a dreadmill. I think that proves my "mental toughness" :tongue:

    Definitely! I'm one of those people who actually don't mind the treadmill, but ten miles is my limit.

    I don't think I've made it past 4.

    Because I am fat and slow, my limit seems to be about 5 miles, or whatever I can actually accomplish in 2x30 minutes (because I go to the rec centre when I have to run indoors and the treadmills have time limits...).

    I like running in a time frame rather than mile targets, anyway. I think I perform better. My weeknight trail runs I pull off while my son is at soccer practice, so running against the clock keeps me cookin'!

    Got another 5.31 miles in this morning. I find it so much harder to go longer distances when I'm home from university, I can't plot the distance as well in my head :D

    Goal distance - 60 miles
    Completed - 9.69 miles
