Treadmills make me uneasy. Something about just letting go of those hand rails and allowing myself to walk at a regular pace without the fear of a face plant. SlimCache is a journey though, and it's about overcoming demons. Including those who live inside workout machines. So with some reluctance I got on the treadmill today.
After acclimating myself to the motions I found that it was WAY easier than I thought, and that my fears were unfounded. I got myself up to a jog at about 4.5 mph and kept it that way for about a half hour. Good times. I'm glad I faced up to that today. Plus now I've got a little more variety. The same two machines were getting pretty old.
