I know everyone thinks the treadmill is boring but I do have some killer running playlists on my ipod and I used to sort of sink into a trance, madly mouthing the song lyrics and thus probably looking quite unhinged. These days I dont use an ipod running, i find outside I feel more connected with my environment and more relaxed afterwards if I don't....
Sounds great Debs! I started running on a treadmill and would regularly run on the thing for 1.5-2hours ut for me it was to do with pacing - I just couldn't seem to get the hang of it when running by myself outside and would just knacker myself much too early. Eventually though I started to go outside and now I would never swap back - something about being in the open air has just so many psychological benefits I find! Also, once you have run somewhere, you HAVE to run back to get home so I like that motivation!!
