Sweet heaven it has been cold around here.  I love winter running... but my legs just couldn't take this fiery chill.  The temps have been hovering around 2 degrees to way below zero.... which would almost be doable if the wind wouldn't pick up those days... ;-(  Anyway, I have been getting in some runs at the gym.  I don't mind.  Do I prefer to be outside?  Uh, HELL YES... but you do what you have to do.  ;-)

Check out this great article!!!

3 Degrees, very windy = Windchill of -21 degrees.  THAT IS COLD!  I could only pull off 3 miles this am in the dark and the cold before my legs stung so bad I wanted to yell obscenities for part of my run. ;-)  Looks like I will do some more tonight at the gym. ;-)

Feeling a tiny bit better today!  After taking pretty much a full week off of running, I am back at it!  My legs felt so wonderfully rested this am.  Lifted some weights this am too.  ;-)

Sick.... horrible cold.  Its bad enough that I can't mentally think let alone run. HA!  So I have rested Sunday, Monday and now today.  I will run Wed, Friday and Saturday.  Long run is still on the books.... I don't want to skip it.  I do think my body needs rest or a wrecking ball for that matter... ;-)
