It was raining at 4:30 this morning so I opted to train inside on the treadmill as much as I hate running on them. I can't get the same motivation running inside as I can when I am running outside. I finished 3.25 miles in 34 minutes but I couldn't push past a 1/2 mile before walking and I was only able to pull that off twice. I had planned on running 2 runs of 3/4 miles and 2 at a 1/2 today with some walking inbetween. Hopefully it will be dry Thursday for my next attempt.I finished up with a body weight/core circuit consisting of:

Russinan twists with an 8# ball 15 reps
Swiss ball pushups 15 reps
Swiss ball crunches 15 reps
Swiss ball planks 30 seconds

I performed the circuit 4 times with no rest between excercises and 2 minutes between sets. The final set of planks was 45 seconds which I will perform in each set the next time I do this WO.

I hate treadmills!
