Tuesday: Worked out but no real running other than a few sprints around the gym track.
Wednesday: Ran at gym in morning 3 miles on the treadmill, 3 miles around the building. Went to run club at night for another 3 miles.
Thursday: Ran at the gym in morning for 4 miles.
Friday: When I got off work Friday afternoon it was a warm 16˚ out. I ran 1 mile on the treadmill then 6 outside. The first 3 went well then I turned around to head back. The very light wind was freezing my face off. So cold! First time I ran outside and thought "my face should really be covered in Vaseline." I made it but was worn out and just went home rather than running anymore on a treadmill.
Saturday: I spent my day learning all about member involvement in Coaching Connections at the YMCA. Sounds amazing I know, after that I was close to a shopping center and thought I could knock out some Christmas presents. I picked up a few then went against my better judgement and bought my 1st running skirt. I do look super cute in it. I think I may wear it in some spring races. Once home I it was already dark and my weekly mileage was looking poor. I jumped on the treadmill for 3 miles after dinner on the treadmill in the basement in my new skirt. It ran well.
Weekly Total: Ended the week with only 31 miles. I'm going to have to get comfortable with the cold cold temps because I have a feeling all the nice temp days are going to be on days I can't run and visa versa.
Sunday Runday: My last opportunity to run outside for a few days. It was 19˚ out, way better than the 16˚ on Friday so I figured no problem. I did 1/2 mile warm up on the treadmill, then went out for 4.5 miles. Not too bad, it was lightly snowing, maybe I'm getting used to this super fun weather.
