Under Armor shirt I figured I would wear to to keep the wind and rain from slowing me down too much. February rain is butt ass cold so I won't be going shirtless, but probably couldn't pull that off anyway unless I was ripped and just a complete badass runner. Even then I'd feel ridiculous.<BR/><BR/>Morrissey, you seriously outclass me in the pacing department. 6:20?! Awesome. I run mostly on the treadmill just because I hate choking on traffic fumes, but I try to do my long runs outdoors like along the Long Beach bike path or Hermosa/Manhattan Beach paths. That's good to hear a marathoner like you does most of the hard work indoors. BTW, I like your blog. Keep it up.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the advice guys!Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03615731303899372824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7430906543687550093.post-1511378577247084532009-02-06T12:47:00.000-08:002009-02-06T12:47:00.000-08:00I know a lot of runners do frown when i say this. ...I know a lot of runners do frown when i say this. but i do most of my training on the treadmill. Hence thats why i hardly talk about my mileage and etc. I usually do 6-9 miles on the treadmill 5 days a week and for the long run...i may do 18 (sets of 6/5/4/3 with 1-2 minutes in between). However all my pace start at: 7:50 and end at 6:20s hence all under 8s.Morrisseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09645504720149669247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7430906543687550093.post-54922947135974351552009-02-06T09:46:00.000-08:002009-02-06T09:46:00.000-08:00Mike - I live in FL, which means I run in the rain...Mike - I live in FL, which means I run in the rain all the time. I typically wear athletic / running shorts and some sort of lightweight dry-fit shirt. Obviously it won't keep you dry, but it is much more comfortable than wearing a t-shirt that will weigh you down big time.<BR/>I guess if you are more bold than I am going shirtless is the right way, as long as the temperature is not too low.<BR/>Hope that helps!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10002859671134808551noreply@blogger.com
