Dressed as though I was planning to rob a bank, I set out for two short runs this weekend. I actually LOVE running in colder temperatures. Being out there when it is below freezing makes me feel like a total bada$$. But the wind, oh the wind. Truly brutal. Thank goodness for my neck gator. It was the one garment I was wearing that made a huge difference, especially today, and my lungs really appreciated not taking in all that cold air.
Now if I could only figure out what I did to my leg... I have a really sharp pain shooting down the front of my left thigh. I did my best to warm up before today's run, but I must have tweaked something. Hopefully a day or two of rest and motrin will take care of that and I won't loose momentum. My goal is to log at least 7 miles each week, running every other day and trying to cross train on off-days so I can get stronger and faster. So far I am on schedule and with this weekend's runs complete I now have only 358 miles to go!
Bada$$ is so true!! That's what I tell my clients when we're out there in the freezing cold at 5:30 in the morning. You are a bada$$ Sher!!!
