Ran my 10k route to the stop light in p-town. It was wicked foggy this morning. I can usually see the stoplight a mile away (literally), but today I couldn't see the red glow until I was .33 miles away. And that was just the glow of the light. I think visibility was less than 1/10 of a mile. I had all my lights on and blinking, but I was extra cautious this morning because I know fog makes it hard to see anything and everything.
Here's a photo I took when I got home. It was dark when I started, so this is what kind of visibility I had with the sun up. I did, however, get to see the moon. No fog blocking my view of the moon. :-) The yellow light is a street lamp across the street.
Beautiful 73 degree run home from work. Thank you for nice weather :-) |

Woke to another crazy foggy morning, and just couldn't muster the desire to run. So I slept in a little and then did 30 min elliptical. Almost finished the book I'm reading, which is a diappointment, but when I've already come this far, why quit now?
Ran home- 74 degrees again. Love this nice December weather!! Evidently, so do the gnats. I ran right through a quarter mile long gnat cloud. Up my nose, in my eyes, in my mouth, all over my face and neck (and the all over my hands as I tried to wipe them off my face). Here's a photo of my neck when I got home. No, I'm not growing a beard. ICK!!

No fog! Hooray :-) Nice moon light, slower than the last 3 runs, but it was intentional- my quads above the knees are just a tad bit sore so I took it easy.
Another slow afternoon run- just went around the 'hood. I had my red blinking light on and someone yelled out to me: "Hey! You look like Rudolph." I laughed and had to agree. |

Nice morning, just a little cooler than it's been all week and a lot more windy. I had wind in my face the last half mile and thought it would have slowed me down but I managed to keep a good speed even in the wind. As I ran across the I-95 bridge, I looked down and saw a big box truck on it's side in the median with 3 police cars around it. Someone was having a bad morning. After work, I ran with a new friend. She's just moved to the area and is substituting at our school. We're pretty well matched on pace and I had a nice run with her around the neighborhoods near the school. We ran 5.29 miles and she went home. I still had an hour until the dance recital I was helping with, so I ran a little more on the treadmill upstairs while watching the boy's basketball team run drills in the gym. 30 minutes on a treadmill was enough. I got in 3.21 miles and a cool-down walk in.

Treadmill, dreadmill. It wasn't too bad. I was on vacation and it was foggy outside all day. So MR and mini-me played in the pool and I ran on the treadmill. Had the whole cardio gym to myself. The last 20 minutes, a couple of guys went out to play tennis on the courts that the machines look out on. It was a welcome distraction for a while :-) |
