hi All
recently joined a Y. So I have tried a few runs on their indoor track. I
can not stand treadmills, though I might try an elliptical or stair stepper(?).
The track has 17 laps per mile (Too bad they could not make it 16 laps
which would be about 100 meter.)
There's only two lanes and a few walkers don't stay in the same lane with other walkers. But it hasn't been so crowded that it is had to get around.
GPS is totally off. It was especially noticeable yesterday when I did
some run walk intervals. My phone app had me walking faster than I was running!
I'm going to run outside next time.
But the real benefit is that they have a sauna, steam bath, and hot tub.
I love a sauna after a good run.
Well that's the news from my side of the world.
Enjoy the run.

I quite enjoyed my only spell on a 200m banked indoor track. Very different from what I’m used to. Spa, steam bath etc sounds way too indulgent. ;-)
Currently accompanying a chap who is running two 6.55 mile runs every day for a year in aid of charity. Usually I just do one run but some days I go out for both runs. Gotta admire his guts in taking on this challenge.
