While I'm happy to say that I don't have pneumonia - all that nonsense with my daughter last week caught up to me (AND my husband). I've been sick since Monday and it has been a rough week!
I only saw the treadmill twice this week and it was a struggle (especially when I ran early in the week) - but thankfully today was a little better. I am VERY worried about how much ground I'm losing by not being able to run as much as I need to.
You would think that running inside would be easier than outside - (after all - it's not weather dependant) - but I am finding this "overwintering" thing to be very difficult. The nice weather is what pushed me outside to run. I find the treadmill tedious. Hopefully this week I'll find the balance I need to get in a decent number of miles.
Got my secret santa gift (Run with Jill) and will devote a special post to that tomorrow!
My trials and tribulations as I tackle the art of running. Learning to love the thrill of being in the middle of the pack!

Finally Friday!!
What a week! Still doing quite a bit of "running" back and forth to the pediatrician - but I am happy to report that I have also done a little running on the treadmill. I got in 2 - 3 miles on Wednesday and 4 yesterday. Absolutely no cross training but I'll take what I can get this week.
My treadmill experience lately has not been enjoyable. I used to love my treadmill compared to running outside. I found the treadmill so much easier. Now that I can't (or selectively can't) run outside due to the rapidly declining temperature, I find the treadmill more difficult than hitting the pavement.
Tomorrow is my scheduled "long" run. 6 miles and I am hoping to do brave the elements and get OUT OF THIS SICK HOUSE!
I plan on training on the treadmill during the week and for my long run on weekends - doing my best to get outside. How much outdoor training do you do during the winter months? Do you think it matters? (indoors / outdoors?)
I personally think there is a big difference and worry that I will lose ground over the next few months. Tips are appreciated!
