The high temp today is 7 degrees, with a "realfeel" of -14. Isn't that just awesome? Ack. Mother nature dumped about 16-18 inches of snow on us and it is going to be COLD the next several days. I guess it is time to start making friends with the treadmill. Ran 6 easy last night and it wasn't too bad. I do need some new tunes for the iPod though. Any suggestions?

I get trapped on the 'mill a ton during the summer. I like to watch TV, something stupid that requires no thought like Comedy Central. It always takes me a couple of weeks to get used to running on it mentally but then I think my brain just gives up :(. I did three 22 milers on that thing this past summer and was okay. It helps me if I'm always changing things up, pace and incline otherwise I get way too zoned out.
Stay warm!!
Listening to music doesn't do it for me on the treadmill. I like something with a beginning and end that lasts the length of the run -- movies, sports (games), and detective shows are good. Something repetitive like CNN headline news is the worst. I watched 5 seasons of The Wire on the treadmill this summer.
As much as I dislike the treadmill, I like running in blizzards even less. Hello, hamster wheel! At least I can put the DEET away for awhile ;)
Audiobooks.
