Friday night at the gym was a huge success for me. I ran both further and longer than ever before, four miles in exactly 40 minutes with a 1.0 incline. I started off with a plan to run 5k(3.1 miles) but when I got to 3 miles I still felt pretty good and ended up squeezing 4 miles(6.4k) out of myself, my friend jumped on a running machine near to me when I had been running for 2o minutes and that helped to keep me going. I`m starting to get used to running on treadmills though the constant looking straight ahead for fear of flying off can be a bit tedious, luckily there was a very attractive girl on a bike who I see in the mirror in front me. I really need to start bringing my ipod along with me to make it a little bit more interesting. The advantages of the treadmill is that you can precisely control and measure the pace and distance at which you are running and that there are no pedestrians taking the p*** out of you.

That is a great run!
I struggle running @ 6mph(10 min/ mile) for anything longer than 3 miles on TM. For some reason I can handle running outside much better than inside on the TM.
I guess boredom plays alot in that.
