    Definitely mastered the treadmill on the cruise ship trick this past week as the top deck running track wasn't open for more than 1 run due to strong winds. The secret to it seems to be just picking the machine closest to the centerline of the boat and fixating on the horizon.

    Dec 14 - 20 miles
    Dec 13 - 5 miles
    Dec 11 - 5 miles
    Dec 10 - 8 miles

    OMG - I feel seasick just reading about it!! That's commitment there!! Well done!

    I'll disclaim that the 13 and 20 milers were on dry land immediately before and after the trip. Still, throughout my 20 miler after returning home, I still felt a bit of a rocking sensation and was surging and slowing to the cadence of the boat.

    3 miles today. I probably should have gone a bit slower although I wasn't huffing and puffing or anything. I was just excited to finally do 3 miles in less that 40 minutes.
