Treadmill training

When living under the smog in Seoul, I used to go down in the basement and run 5k on the treadmill now and then. These days, almost all of my running is outdoors, unless it is really cold or I am just doing a quick warm-up before strength training at USM. Still, for all its drabness, treadmill running has an abstract purity to it, like that everything just comes down to your motivation and perseverance. With the traffic and the heat outside, it will still be hard to hit 80 km this week but at least I just ran ten more while looking out over the blue hotel pool. Tomorrow afternoon we are off to Bali with AirAsia.
