Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured

Ran this morning with Paula.  We had a great time despite the cold.  I had over dressed and shedded a jacket at about mile 1. It was icy on the side streets but the main roads were dry so we opted to stick to those and dodge cars. The rest was great. 

Happy Running!

I was so excited to run in sunny San Diego and thought that 49 degrees sounded wonderful, BUT a long sleeve T and shorts were not quite warm enough.  Once I had  warmed up I decided since I was short on time I would do some speed work.  I ended up feeling really good by the end and my last mile was 7:33.

Ave Pace 8:20 

Happy Running!

Today was one of the most icy runs I have ever had.  There was black ice everywhere.  We thought once we got on the main road it would be better and then once we made it to the Lake Park trail we would be fine, but there was black ice the entire time.  We took it really slow and made it home safe, but not the smartest decision.  

Happy Running!

Ran with the BBK in the horrible wind, pretty much a horrible run except for the company. Not much more to say.

Happy Running!

Met up with fellow BBK'ers and we ran a proposed route for the Riverton 1/2 marathon.  I complained my way through the run - thanks to everyone who put up with it, especially Michelle.  But when all was said and done it was a good run.  It will be fair course with some good hills along the way.  We had a lot of ice and snow on the trail segments and at a couple of points we had to walk.  Our pace was all over the place because of that but we ended with 8:44 which considering some of the conditions, not too bad.

I need a major attitude adjustment before Painters.  One week to get my act together and start enjoying running again because this week was miserable.

Happy Running!
