Well, we were rained out completely for the weekend. Hurrican Dennis caused enough lightening and rain to make it unsafe to walk outdoors. Some of our walkers met at the mall, but I must admit, I took the bad weather as a good chance to sleep in for a change.

However, guilt overcame lazyness by Sunday and I did 10 miles on my treadmill. I've discovered that if I do 3 or 4 and take a short break and then go back again for more - and then more, I can add up some good mileage. Somehow my treadmill conspired to help me by overheating and stopping at around 4.5 miles - so we both cooled down and began again!

While treadmill training isn't ideal, it gave me a good chance to listen to an audible book and made the time and miles go by more quickly.

Now we're looking forward to next weekend and hoping that Tropical Storm Emily stays away. We'd really like to get back to our group training. It's always more fun to walk with friends!
