I can definitely feel a difference between treadmill and outside. I actually prefer the treadmill a lot of the time too!
haha…i know, it’s so sad that i’ve turned into a quasi-treadmill addict!! BUT, there are no races on a treadmill and getting outside if u can def works all those muscles in a different way, so i’m trying to break the cycle. 😛
PS- Vanessa…i’ve tried and tried again for about 10 mins trying to post a comment on ur blog but stupid blogger won’t let me!!! ugh…i don’t want u to think i’m ignoring u! here was my comment to ur long run day:
CONGRATS!!! oh gosh..18…u’re in the big leagues! 🙂 haha…thanks for posing for us in ur ‘i’m excited’ ones…i luv it!
haha…i’m kinda weird and like to end a bit over either 1 mile or 1/2 mile incriments. why? i’m insanely anal and have to just make SURE i hit at least the full amount if i’m gonna log it as such. 😉
Yes I want to be in a limo! But no, I haven’t been in a limo! By the way, I’ve been meaning to ask you! Do you eat before you exercise (and how long before) or after (how long after)? Because I keep getting stitches! Thanks
hey there my friend!! sorry for some reason i thought i replied but obviously i’m lame!! but i wanted to answer your question…i usually run first thing in the morning and i don’t eat. i have a pretty finicky stomach and get cramps if i have too much; but i make sure i eat a big dinner and i eat a big snack (prolly too big actually) the night before so i have energy. when i do have to run later in the day then i have something that i know won’t give me cramps and make sure it’s at least two hours before i’m going to run. if i plan on running hard i might make it a bit earlier. the key is finding something that works for you; i’ve found that oatmeal i can handle, turkey sandwiches with lettuce/tomato/bread/mustard, bagels, and granola bars have worked. oh…and i’m not kidding, pop tarts. let me know how it goes!
ARGH you have been posting!! WHY haven’t you been showing up in my Google Reader?! Not cool…I’ll resubscribe and that should do it 🙂
Anyway, I am SO happy you kicked butt on the trail today!! And I can’t BELIEVE you find the treadmill easier!! I find it HARDER haha! I dunno I just find my normal paces feel that much harder! 😛
And be jealous cos I have been in a limo THREE TIMES!! Ok, I’ll stop boasting now hehe 😉
Yeah for running on the road AND for limos! You rock my socks. I totally agree that the stupid 1.5 incline is bullcrap- it’s WAY harder to run outside! The treaddy is nice and comforting, though! And Mexican food is my ultimate FAVE. Bring on the guac. And then… the treadmill.

Cait! You have half of your post repeated twice!! Just wanted to give you a head’s up! It’s the first 5 paragraphs…
I love Mexican food too. Burritos and quesadillas are my top choice. Guacamole is a must!
