I'm back in the saddle again! :o)

And I guess you can say, I was feeling a little hard core. The temp was 44 degrees (which is quite cold for a phoenisan like me...) with wind, and the kicker... rain. (in short sleeves) :o) I've been seen doing crazier things though. When I got home, there were different parts of my body that looked like they had been sun burned because of the cold. I've never seen anything like it before. And considering how white my skin is (pretty white), the spots were bright red. LOL

So, the wisdom teeth thing really screwed with my health is past week. It's been not so fun. I'm thinking that getting back into my regular routine will help with that though. As soon as I stopped running, I felt shooting pain in my mouth where the teeth use to be. I can understand why they tell you to wait a week to run. I'm glad Lybi checked. (Lybi is the best. Not only is she an awesome person and friend, she was so wonderful and took me to the surgery center to have my teeth removed, waited for me, saw me at my loopest and didn't post it on U-tube, brought me home, and took care of me until Brandon got off work. People just don't get much better than that. Lybi, if you read this... i LOVE you!)

Happy Easter Tomorrow!

Now that's a good friend!!! So glad to see you're back out there, braving toothaches and cold temps. You're awesome!

Those wisdom teeth are a pain. keep eating ice cream!

You running in the cold makes me chuckle!! Because, to us Utahns, that is short and tank top weather!! (Not really, I wore long sleeves in 55 yesterday, but shorts). And then the splotchy redness---oh what a familiar thing (try a frost-bitten belly bulge)! Don't you worry, soon it will be so warm you will not know what do with yourself!

Take care of your HEALTH and good luck with the training. You are going to do great!

There you are! Glad you are feeling better and back in the saddle! Heehee I always have a big red spot right around my belly button when I run in the cold it looks so silly!
