The "G" Word

I caved. I'm murderously sick of this rain and decided to opt in for indoor running. Ran on the treadmill this morning and felt all my experience with the sport had to start over. The air quality sucks; I can't smell the pine trees, no wind to fight against/draft on, the incline was super unrealistic, FOX news was on the TV screen (haven't figured out how to tinker around the dials, yet), and the list goes on. I called Tracy today for wanting accompaniment on the next treadmill sesh. The gym is no match for the forest, but the rainy grievances made it feel that this was the best option to log in miles without the simultaneity of showering under the ubiquitous rain.
