Is no one else getting gains?

It’s 108 here, could run at night I was thinking but we also have a cloud of smog hanging over the city from everyone’s fireworks over the past few days, which are legal here in the Wild West

I’m sick of breathing smog like I’m running in fucking Mordor, so I did indoor today, and treadmill always forces timed runs

Sunburn but only on my knees.

I look like I've been doing something scandalous.

Treadmill’s easier than outside though, the belt engine helps pull and there’s no wind resistance. I prefer outside but the last time I ran at night in smog so thick the streetlights were hazy, I was coughing like crazy after for 2 hours

I notice my stride is different on treadmill, more of a straight legged glide with the belt assisting. Unless it’s one of those recently lubed treadmills where the belt moves too much then my stride is all over the place like a wet slippery fish

I kept waiting for that to animate or something like a huge gif Is that supposed to animate?

If you askin me, I love cardio (running, hiking, even suffocating er I mean swimming) more than I like lifting. I’ll prolly sign up for a half-m in winter/dec though. They don’t do them during the summer where I live because people would die

Good heart health is really important. I'm all about trying to keep my resting heart rate down through plenty of cardio.

I understand not putting running events in peak summer but I'd still prefer the heat over the cold getting into my lungs ^^

Yea I never pay attention to it because it’s never been a problem but I do remember my last Dr visit when they did the blood pressure the nurse was like “yours is really good!” or something. I almost wanted to tell her “that’s surprising because I feel like to some degree my blood pressure spikes as soon as I walk in here because I dislike doctors due to their constant haughty condescending attitudes, and I dislike being here” but I kept my mouth shut

And yea I can see the cold thing. I like working out in cold but it doesn’t get nearly as cold here as it does there so I feel ya on that

Oh it did finally animate! Hell yea
