That I found myself running along on the treadmill, thinking...why the hell do I do this?
Fortunately, these days are few and far between. Today's workout:
Four rounds, each for time of:
800 meter run
Rest as needed between efforts.
I did it on the treadmill at a 1.0 incline.
My times were:
3:40
3:30
3:20
3:10
I "rested" 2 minutes between the runs by walking at 4mph.
After the last 800m, I walked for two minutes, and ran one more half mile at 7.5mph.
I also did a rather long, painful ab workout along with a bunch of sets of back extensions.
I'm glad I stuck with it today!

I HATE 800's. They're just short enough that you run them pretty hard, and just long enough that the last 200 meters or so just hurts.
I linked to your blog from mine, by the way. Not that you'll get a ton of traffic, haha. Hope you don't mind. If so, just let me know.

Wow, how did you manage to keep walking in between, i have to collapse after each 800!! haha
p.s. Good for you for pushing through the negative thoughts!
