Monday, February 01, 2010 – 34 days until marathon

Snow and ice continues to cover the roads, trails and sidewalks of Jonesboro, so I trained indoors tonight. I ran three miles on the treadmill, in just under 24 minutes. I did speed work, as I loosely call it, alternating between 90% exertion and 70% exertion. At one point, I maintained 9.6 mph for more than two minutes. The treadmill made an awful noise.

I noticed a significant reduction in the love handles this morning. My body size is continuing to shrink, while my weight is continuing to climb. It’s an interesting exchange, but I’m beginning to wonder what the post-marathon shape will be like…
