Super happy with this run!! Despite the monotony of running in one place indoors, I'm a big fan of doing workouts on the treadmill! This is good, because at the moment, there is nowhere in Pgh where it'd be possible to run anywhere near 6:00 pace (took Steve 40 min to "run" 3 miles!). I ended this run feeling really good; I actually felt like I could have done 3 x 5 or 6 miles, this was such a controlled effort. I'm confident I could run 6:05 pace for 26.2 miles on a treadmill...hopefully that means I'm ready for LA!
