'Chust Do It* (and Throw One on the Barbie for Ryan Foster)

*As the Amish would say, if they ran in orange shoes! (And they do!)

Ryan Foster returned to form today in his home country at the Sydney Track Classic.  His 1500M time of 3:40.39 is the equivalent of a 3:57.8  mile according to the IAAF scoring tables.  Following his recent virus infection, his upside is now quite favorable.  Full speed ahead, Ryan.

And if you are like me, there just isn't enough time in the day to get much done for yourself.  That means time for running is certainly at a premium.  Hench the treadmill comes into play.  It can be a great time saver and go-to workout during times of inclement weather. Despite not even counting treadmill miles prior to 1993, most of my miles are now done in front of a TV in my treadmill room. But does it compare to the old-fashioned outside run?

Treadmill versus Outside Running

The verdict is, of course, mixed.  But in my mind, doing it is better than not doing it every time.  So 'chust do it.
