Years ago I thought I loved the treadmill. Then we moved here and I got outside. Now I only get on the treadmill if I absolutely have to. <br /><br />BTW, I am continually in awe of your pics.MAYBERRYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10311824634489107455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762797438051684168.post-15770480745101074282011-10-11T10:06:49.538-06:002011-10-11T10:06:49.538-06:00I hereby award you an award for best photos in a b...I hereby award you an award for best photos in a blog. You wouldn't even have to write and we would all just show up to look at the pics and be jealous that our runs arent as great. <br /><br />I know what you mean by fueling. When the weather is cool and I run long I'm horrible at getting in the calories I need. I've paid the price for that a time or two. <br /><br />I wanna do an ultra in a year or less, just need to know that my knees can hold up. I've had that front of the knee cap thing hurt like you had.

Although part of that is a trained like. When I was working and in grad school treadmill time was 1) the only way to get mileage in safely and 2) the only time I got to watch TV. So it was a learned association of fun. I would admit currently I don't like it so much. <br /><br />Oh and I know you made a comment many moons ago about this...so I wanted to let you know my review of Nathan hydration products is up...http://www.rojrunning.com/2011/10/product-review-nathan-hydration.htmlJulie @ ROJ Runninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12759218488508091204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762797438051684168.post-27552735502082546662011-10-11T08:57:49.948-06:002011-10-11T08:57:49.948-06:00Awesome miles!

When I first got to your page, I was kind of quickly scrolling down to see if this was the next entry after the STG marathon. In this quick scrolling, it *may* have looked a wee bit like a saggy bra on the outside of your shirt rather than your water reserves. Haha - I totally laughed out loud! <br /><br />I can fully support a pom-pom hat or a faux-leather fanny pack, even buy you a rockin' sequin hat...but I draw the line at saggy bras. ;)Holliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04011818411061813727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762797438051684168.post-12114501250186709962011-10-10T19:58:16.688-06:002011-10-10T19:58:16.688-06:00I absolutely love that first picture...wow!!

So impressed wi...Those pictures are just amazing. <br /><br />So impressed with your mileage. It makes me tired just thinking about the miles and the early, early mornings. And hanging in there for the last 3 of your 30 mile run...wow. <br /><br />I really, really don't like the treadmill. And once, while in Chicago with my son for a volleyball tournament, I ran 14 miles on the TM so I didn't have to leave him alone in the hotel. Ugh...it was like 30 hours mentally. <br /><br />Running in rain in warm weather is awesome. I did run in the rain in one winter race, but I think the course was so difficult that I stayed super warm the whole time. <br /><br />Does your plan call for any 2 a day runs? A friend who did a 50 miler did some of those, too.Kate Geisenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11854561265520868538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762797438051684168.post-83361568855294471992011-10-10T07:16:23.317-06:002011-10-10T07:16:23.317-06:00LOVED LOVED LOVED the first picture and the last p...LOVED LOVED LOVED the first picture and the last picture!<br />Great job on not giving up on your long run!!A Prelude To...https://www.blogger.com/profile/09701584163226867775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762797438051684168.post-67349887832357317052011-10-10T07:09:47.034-06:002011-10-10T07:09:47.034-06:00Yes, the treadmill is horrible.

Watching TV or reading strikes me as the only upside.<br /><br />Running in the rain is fun if it is a hot summer day. Running in the cold and rain is not fun. I love me my water proof trail shoes.<br /><br />I am excited about your 50 miler coming up. I am sure you will get your nutrition all figured out by then. Are any pacers or mules lined up with food as part of your plan? Are they allowed?<br /><br />I took a page from your book and took a camera with me on my bike route to work. Got a lot of pictures. If you see a post out of me covering a route by pictures know that it was inspired by your work.Paulie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17307048640649311126noreply@blogger.com
