The weather is final smartening up here. For the past week or so I’ve been waking up to find snow on the ground with continued rani/snow throughout the day. I have been doing a great job of “training” either indoors on my treadmill or (more recently) outside. Unfortunately, using my treadmill is not my favorite way to run so after the first time I ran outside, I’ve had incredible difficulty being motivated to run inside again.
With such crappy weather, it has been hard to get outside for those runs. I won’t even complain about the temperature, because K and I did our first 10K train together a few weeks ago when it was -1C… it wasn’t bad at all. What does really suck, is running the the ran/snow/slush/puddles/ice etc. Now that the sun is out today, I have no excuses!
Well, maybe I have one excuse – I have had this horrible sinus cold for almost 2 weeks now. In Friday I ran another 10K with K (on an inside track) and afterwards I felt horrible for two days. Then, last night I was up very late at night feeling sick (I don’t know what kind of sick – just lots of waves of nausea/heat/chills) and this morning I still don’t feel “quite right.” I think I am going to take a nap and hopefully I will wake up in a few hours feeling a little more refreshed.
Then I can go for a fun!

I just took up running too. I’m doing the C25K so I’m nowhere near 10k yet. I kinda chickened out of my run last night because it’d been raining and I figured running on wet ground wouldn’t be so much fun.

Thats okay, I went for my run yesterday and had to bail at 3.25K. Some days are just not meant for running, regardless of what we think 😦
