The weather last week was really hard on my training schedule. So. Much. Rain. Not wanting to get sick I took those rainy day work outs indoors to the bike trainer. I definitely spent more time on the trainer than I would care to do but at least I was active. I also went out of town late last week for a family event so I was a little out of sorts with how/where to work out. On Friday I went to a local fitness center and ran on the treadmill. After about 42 minutes I'd paused the treadmill to take a quick break but when I went to start it back up it reset and started from the beginning. I took it as a sign and hopped onto an elliptical for another 20 minutes. It was alright but I definitely prefer to run outside both for the fresh air and changing scenery. I was thrilled to wake up on Saturday morning to sun (albeit with lots of snow on the ground) and headed out for a wintery run. I absolutely missed running with my Team Challenge teammates since they definitely make the Saturday long runs even more enjoyable!
