Even treadmill running involves -35C temperatures!

Hi gang,

Wanted to run on the treadmill this morning here in my apartment building in Yellowknife but, alas, it was broken. Checked with management and they couldn't get it fixed in time but they did give me access to a sister building with Gym about 500 m away. That 500 m is a very long distance when it is -35C!

So I wandered over tonight and put in a standard 5.2 km in just 30:35 with an incline of 2%. Not as good as road running but ok once in a while and certainly better than running outside under these conditions.

Today's song of the day was Killer Queen by Queen. Back at you real soon - I sense further short walks, followed by runs in my immediate future.

Paul
