Treadmill Long Run

We got a tremendous snow storm today. It just dumped a ton of wet snow all night and day. The result is an icy, winter wonderland outside tonight. The temperatures have dropped well below freezing and are not likely to rise much by tomorrow morning. I am now facing the grim option of doing my long run tomorrow on a treadmill. The idea alone is a little mind numbing. Treadmills are to running like potato chips are to fine dining. They fulfill a need at times but are far less desirable, especially for doing any serious distance on. On the upside, to counter the monotony I need carry no gear and get to wear shorts. I am willing to get on and get the miles in, but do hope mother nature can offer up at least decent traction next week.
