My Training Log for 1/21/13 - 2/10/13

Trying to post the workouts I do every week would be too time consuming, and probably just plain boring.  I try to occasionally post workouts, as an example of what I do to train.  Hopefully, it gives people an idea of what I am doing, they can compare to what they are doing, and/or they can comment and question me.
Depending on the LA Fitness, treadmill is either min/mi or mph.
I would say this is an average of 3 weeks while I am training and not racing, basically Jan - May/June.
