15 miles and a Bears Victory
Posted by yoherb on 12/4/2006 on yoherb's blog

One of my favorite parts of training in the winter is jumping on the treadmill and watching football. Some people think I'm nuts for doing 2-3 hour runs inside, but I find its a great way to watch my favorite team (Da Bears).

Anyone else out there find the Sunday Long Run + Footbal a good combo?

About 1/2 of my long runs are done outside. But the benefits of inside are:

- plenty of water
- never far from a bathroom
- not too hot, not too cold
- TV to pass the time (movies, TV series on DVD, sports)
- easier on the knees

Ok, it's almost half time in the Sunday night game. Time to go soak the legs in the tub and catch the second half. Ah, football and running...
