Long run in the snow (12.27.09)
I skipped yesterday’s long run because of how sick I was on Friday. I didn’t eat much and knew I needed the extra day to recuperate. I wasn’t sure when I would run today or for how long because I didn’t know how I would feel. Part of me thought I needed to get 2 hours in, but my mental capacity wasn’t feeling it.
So, after opening up stockings with everyone and eating some breakfast, I decided to get dressed and head out. The snow was falling quite rapidly, so I had low expectations. However, after about the first mile and a half I knew it was going to be a good day! All in all I completed just under 11.5 miles in 1hr. 42min. and some change. Pretty good for running in the snow. I felt great the entire way!
So, tomorrow is off and then Tuesday I have some more hill repeats. I think this time I’ll do it inside on my parent’s treadmill. Until then, run hard and run well!
