[quote=Anonymous]I think for a lot of people, running outside is easier than running on the treadmill because it's less boring. I know it is for me. I've always run flat - no incline - on the treadmill - and it hasn't affected my speed or endurance when I go back outside. Sometimes I'm faster outside, sometimes I'm faster on the 'mill. Assume that it might be just a bit harder when you get outside because there will be wind resistance and a bit of incline, depending on your route. When running outside, aim for the softer surfaces whenever possible. Concrete is the hardest surface. Pavement is softer, so a paved trail is a good choice. Dirt/grass is softer - just watch out for potholes or tree roots, etc. A track surface is easy on the legs, too.[/quote]
