I can honestly say I haven’t run outside in months, I haven’t even really run indoors much lately. I’ve been doing more cross training this winter to give my body a rest from running so much last fall. I’m scheduled to do a 10 mile run May 4th so I do need to start doing some outside running. However one last fun treadmill run before I can have an improved view for my work out!
