Woohoo!
I knew I wanted to work out tonight after work. The cold temps made it quite undesirable to go to the gym across town. I plugged in the treadmill, checked the good ol heart rate monitor, and did a short workout. I was able to jog for 30 minutes straight! It did help that I had a movie on the TV...I've found the TVs on the elipticals at the gym distract me nicely too. It still blows my mind that people can read while using an eliptical or treadmill.
I was also pleased how quickly that "runner's high" feeling kicked in too. I'm sure my attitude helped how I felt during the run. I was anxious to do it and not dreading it. I'm going to head upstairs and eat some of our leftover chili so I can finish this movie without starving. (I'm watching the sequel to "Elizabeth".)
Stay warm!!

Congrats on putting the treadmill to good use. Your 30-minute jog is very impressive. It's sad how helpful TVs are, but it's true, wonderful distraction.
Congrats.
P.S. I'm a ridiculously lazy cook, so I probably won't try your chicken chili. Sorry.
