Surviving the Christmas Storm of 2004
Up here in the Mid-West we got a nasty winter storm, a blast of cold, Artic air and heavy, wet snow. Then below zero temperatures. Winter has arrived. Once, it gets below 20 degrees Fahrenheit, I don’t like to run outside. Plus, if it is really icy and snow covered ground, like it is now, it is very difficult to run outside. There are a few hardy souls that do. But, once winter is here, I do all my running inside.
Since I was a good boy this year, Santa brought me a new treadmill for Christmas. I had a treadmill, a cheaper one, and I defiantly got my money out of it, but it was starting to have some problems.
What I like about a treadmill is that it allows me to run year round. It’s a little more boring running on a treadmill, but then I get to watch a lot of TV that way.

If you live in an area where you can’t run outside a lot because of weather, I would recommend buying a treadmill or joining a gym that has treadmills.
If either of these options are not do-able, because you can’t afford a treadmill or a gym, or you don’t have room for a treadmill and there are no good gyms in your area, then here are some other suggestions:
1) Skip rope.
I like this option and I do skip rope sometimes. It’s relatively cheap, you don’t even have to buy a fancy jump rope, although they are fairly cheap. I used to just cut a piece of nylon rope and tape the middle of it with black electric tape. This adds some weight to the rope and prevents the middle of the rope from fraying. You don’t need a whole lot of room. Except you need a lot of room above your head to so the rope will clear your head.
Check out some great jump ropes at www.lifeline-usa.com.
2) Use the Power Sprinter from LifeLine-USA
This is another great tool, for a fast and furious work-out. It’s good to try and do some speed work with it. But, you can also try a slower more steady workout with it. You can order the Power Sprinter from life-line-USA, at: http://www.lifelineusa.com/products.cfm?categoryid=13&productid=20
3) Do the workouts from my course, “How To Run Like A Deer, Forever”. Not only are the workouts designed to help you run injury free, but they help to build endurance.
Write and let me know what you do when the weather gets too cold, or too hot and you can’t run outside.
Remember, if you are experiencing pain, see a doctor as soon as possible.
And, if you are thinking about or have given up running because of pain or fear of injuries, give my course a try. You can order here: http://www.runningtough.com/order.html.
