Have I mentioned before that I am SICK of the cold weather?? It is horrible. I just DO NOT want to go out in it...and I loathe the dreadmill and can't run more than 2 miles confortably on that thing. UGH
I went to the beach last Thurs eve with some girlfriends and stayed till Sunday. I did not run once. I walked 3 miles...that's it. But it was so cold and windy. So I guess I can include that mileage on my shoes?? what about on mileage YTD? I will do it anyway. HA
But the weather...I mean come in...20's, 30's & low 40's STINK...even just going from home, to car to office to car to store etc etc. So it needs to get warm again fast or I am gonna have issues. I was doing so well last fall till it got cold. I mean if I haven't mentioned it BEFORE (LOL) I ran a 10k in Oct for goodness sake!!! ;) I mean that is not a marathon or anything but it IS an accomplishment. And I haven't run 6 (OR even 5) miles since! SLACKER. It is the weather's fault.
SOO, this afternoon I will run...in what Ithink what will be about 45'ish or lower weather. UGH But not too bad considering I have run in 25 degree temps a few times. As long as it is not windy (which is HAS been) I will be OK. And I have not run since Tuesday last week. One week. This should be interesting. Although I have done some of my longer runs when I have had excessive time between my last run and that run. But with the cold I think I will just want to get home sooner. I will try my 4 mile route and see what happens.
And I KNOW some of you who read this go out and run EVERY DAY in 20 degree or less temps...you people are DIE HARD and I am impressed. I wouldn't even get out fo BED if I had to deal with those temps ALL winter and didn't get the weird NC springlike weather break every few weeks. Great job!

Have you noticed I've been ignoring your comments about running? :) I have only run twice since the Women's Only. I'm okay with it though. I got the new job and the time changed right afterward and I haven't been able to get it together. I'm planning on starting over as it warms up a bit. Just the fact that I did it once gives me confidence that I can do it again.
