I've got a fever...
On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.

It's 7 degrees Ferenheit here in Central Canada. In this weather, I really only have 3 options. Treadmill, Track, or not running in the Winter. I'm not willing to give up running in the winter. I will tolerate a Treadmill. I also run on the track an my local pool. The best way to eliminate boredom on the Treadmill is to play a game while running. I listen to my MP3 Player while I run, and increase the speed every 3rd song. My challenge is to see how much speed I can handle.

...And I do.
Yep, me too (my fear is stray dogs, not people). I've been too scared since then to go back out in the dark (not sure why it bothers me less in the daylight, I guess the security of more people being around or driving by or something makes me feel safer) so I am back to doing my weekday early AM runs at the gym.
