To treadmill or not to treadmill ...... that is the question

100 lengths of the swimming pool. Sounds like a torture handed out to a school boy, so if I tell you I think this is an epic swim, then you will probably think, 'he's nuts'. Your probably right but I am chuffed to have done 100 lengths of the pool on Wednesday. 100 lengths is about 2500m. An Ironman distance swim is 3.8km so I still have a way to go yet. 3000m will be the next target (another 20 lengths).


But you cannot swim the London Marathon, so I had better do some running soon. I have been searcing ebay for treadmills recently and the arguments to get one are increasing. The boys and Sarah all think it would be a good idea and even promise me they would use it, well, when I tell them it would be in the garage they suddenly backtrack, and I would have no excuses about the dark and wet, so it would seem like a good idea. Ummmmm, treadmill?
