On the treadmill @ 8:34 pace.

Biked 4 miles 

Wanted to run outside, but the temp was 0 and the windchill was -15 to -20. Didn't feel like dealing with the cold and the roads are still not cleared very well. Hopefully this weekend I can get Bayly out. She is a little unruly since she hasn't been out for a week. 

Ok, so I log on and here is Jillian looking all tan and buff while I feel all spindly and pale. Like that's fair. :)

4 miles @ 8:34 pace

3/4 mile @ 8:15 pace

1/4 mile @ 8:00 pace

 Hoping to get outside tomorrow and wear the dog out. She has gutted 2 stuffies this week and harassed the appliance delivery guys. 

Outside (yea!). Temp. 13 and no wind! It was awesome! Conditions were horrible. Everything is white. Everything. Makes it hard to see. The road has about 2 inches of powder on it. For every step forward I slipped 1/2 step back. Needless to say my pace was pathetic. Ave. 10 min. miles. But it was so good to get outside with Bayly I didn't care. She had a full set of whiskercicles. 

I am enjoying my Garmin, which I have affectionately named Petunia. Everyone has a Garmin, but how many can say they have a Petunia! :) Still figuring out all the bells and whistles. Quite a task for someone who is technology illiterate. 

Spent the day shoveling out; in the brilliant sunshine. The day was beautiful. I told Ron I would finish shoveling and he could put my new dishwasher and faucet in. :) I was out for a couple hours, got all the snow cleared off the driveway. Had to round up the dogs a few times, as they were off visiting the neighbors. Finally got down to the treadmill at 9pm.  Ran a 9:00 minute pace. Kicked it down to 8:34 for the last 2 miles.

Supposed to be negative highs all week. If the wind doesn't blow I still might be able to get outside. Hopefully
