Ran a slow 3 miles on the treadmill. Ate good today. Yesterday I stocked up on healthy food. Going to eat better and loose a few pounds.

Felt miserable all day because of a stiff neck and shoulder and a headache. After work I forced myself to run on the treadmill. First mile was tough, second mile I was starting to feel better, after four miles I felt great and was enjoying jamming out with my ipod. After running five miles I wanted to run more but decided I better go home and get some things done around the house. I will run tomorrow.

Wasn't to sure about getting up this morning and running but decided I would be sorry if I didn't take the opportunity since it is only suppose to be nice this weekend and then white stuff is coming this week. It still was cold though. I wanted to stay in my warm bed but I went trail running. As always the first mile I was thinking why in the world am I doing this I can't feel my fingers or toes. But after warming up I enjoyed the run until on the way back because the sun was in my eyes and reflecting off the frosted grass and trees. I felt like I was running blind. I need to get sun glasses.

Tried out my new trail running shoes I got in December and hadn't took to the trails yet. I liked them. A lot less shoe. Feet felt light. My calves didn't hurt like they do in my other trail running shoes that are heavy. Felt weird having the thin shoes though. I could feel the ground and felt like I figuring out how to strike the ground again. 

Glad I went running this morning. I feel refreshed.
