I had a great run tonight even though it was so cold! It was not a planned run. Hubby is nursing an injured knee and he felt the need to walk. We decided to meet at his office and then go the track for a workout.
I ran only 3 miles but I ran it almost 2 minutes per mile faster than my regular pace. Yesterday , I shaved 7 minutes off a 5 mile run.
It was cold, crisp and 41 degrees. I could have kept running after 3 miles of course,but I had decided ahead of time to keep it to 3 miles. My heels were bothering me a bit and I do NOT want to injure myself. Remember, I am still a newbie.
There were a few people running tonight, probably due to the cold. Yes, 41 is very cold for us tropical orchids in the South. Thank God for coldgear! I was reading a blog post tonight where one girl was running in 10 degree weather. I am sure 41 would be like a summer day to her. It really is all about what you compare.
Afterwards we went out to dinner for baked chicken with tons of vegetables and a piece of cornbread. YUM YUM!
