This won't be a huge update; I'm meeting Mom and Corrine at the pool in 15 minutes. I can sum up today's run in two words:
- Cold
- Ouch
It was 42° and overcast when I headed out this morning. I wore pants, a tank top and a hoodie. Creepy Binocular Guy was walking the track when I got there. He was wearing a goose down jacket (wimp), but I could still tell it was him. I don't know what happened to him because by the time I got done with my warm up, he was gone. I felt pretty good, so I took my hoodie off and hung it on the fence post.
Mistake.
The wind started up and I got cold again pretty quickly. The next time I came around, I put the hoodie back on. I took it off again by the fifth run. I just can't seem to find a happy medium with these cold mornings. I was running late, so I only had a bite of a power bar for breakfast. Plus, I woke up in a bad mood, so it was a crappy morning all around. I felt a teeny bit stronger today, but the run was still hard, especially the last two stretches. I'm confident that I'll feel pretty good about Week 2 by Saturday. Sunday, I mean. Saturday is the Walk for Farm Animals.
Ok, time's up. See you Thursday!
