In KY for work and it took quite a bit of talk to get myself out of bed and on the treadmill.   I ran the first mile with an incline of 1.5 and at 6.4/6.6 and thought I was going to die.  Bumped down the incline to 1.0 and 6.8/7.0 for mile 2 and it wasn't any easier..  I thought about going outside if it was in the high 40's but no, 33 degrees.   I decided to tough it out and get 3 miles and bumping the incline to 0.  Ended up feeling better and running 7 miles with 1.5 below MP.   Glad that is over..... Avg Pace 8:28

It's really that cold in KY? Brrrr. I am glad you got your 7 on the TM while feeling like you did not want to get out of bed.

I commented on your MCM experience. Sorry it's taken me this long to read about it.

Bec,

Thanks for the comments! I am becoming a baby about the cold, it is almost comical. I never thought twice about it in Utah.

Hope all is well for you in Del Rio....I saw that you are going to be in San Antonio for a few months... Is that true?

My daughter is playing volleyball there in January. We might have to arrange to run together.
