Nine is Less Than Four?

After braving the elements last weekend to run a 15K, I decided to at least take advantage of the sunshine this morning for my training run. I embraced the fact in my mind that today's run was a mere four miles; once I was outside I decided that last week's nine in a competitive setting was much easier. In the end, I got it done, but I'm definitely ready for spring to be here!

Brrrrrr!!!!!!

Well, I sucked it up and ran a 15K today. Actually, once we got going, it only honestly took about a mile and a half for circulation to return to my fingers and toes.

I finished in 1:34 which was around a 10:04 pace. I also registered as an "Athena" and wound up first in that division.

All in all, I'm quite pleased with the results and am glad I decided to run. Now, I need a nap!

Lured by Warm Temps

We're having a heat wave here in Wisconsin! It's going to be mid 30s this weekend!!! It's enough to push me over the fence and I'm running Seroogy's Valentine's 15K. Now I need to fully wrap my mind around this!
