Treadmill

Notes

Long runs on the treadmill suck. Cardio felt good, but it is so damn boring to run in place for well over an hour. I also started having pain in my right heel, a warning sign for plantar fasciitis. I think I will take it easy this next week or two, lots of elliptical. I also measured my dads treadmill accuracy with a measuring wheel. I did two half mile measurements,first at the fastest speed(12 mph) it was almost perfect,15 ft long over .5 mile Next I measured at actual running speed, It read long by 4% (105 ft in .5 mile) Very informative experiment. After Recalibrating the footpod last run, it measured 9.07 today on the treadmill. After correcting for error measured by the treadmill, actual distance was 9.13. Why can't the damn thing work like this every time, all the time. I am looking forward to my garmin.

P.S. Run was done on 1% incline
