AM: AEROBIC BUILDER (PROGRESSION)

I did an 8-mile AB on the hotel treadmill at a 1% incline, since I haven't found a suitable route for fast, safe running yet (the roads around the hotel are narrow with no shoulder or sidewalk). Splits were: 525 525 521 518 514 512 505 500.

PM: Got another break and snuck in a quick run before meeting back up. 6 miles easy outside.

Nice workout dude. It was a rough morning and Bryant got us lost.

Wish I knew the area better. I often race there, but that's different. I would say the Monon Trail, but I think there are too many intersections, however small. And people really don't understand trail rules.

I am guessing you are looking for something within warmup distance rather than driving distance?

Yeah I don't have a rental car, so I'm kind of stuck running from the hotel. And we're cornered on two sides by major freeways, so the options are quite limited. It's also mostly a commercial area, so lots of traffic and lights etc. But I'll manage.
