I'm a pansy. I watched the weather Monday night and got scared of the cold and decided to skip the run Tuesday morning. It turns out that it wasn't as cold as it was supposed to be and I should have got up and run. Well, I decided to get up Wednesday morning and check the temp. This time it was cold, 19 degrees. I went back to bed. Wednesday night it was already 23 degrees when I went to bed so I skipped this morning as well. I'm a little scared of 20 degree weather but I bet it I would hardly notice the cold after a mile or so. I'm a chicken. So, it was so nice today I left work early to get in a run. I've felt really good on my recent runs and because I'm a pansy I've been getting plenty of rest between runs. So I decided to run 7. I haven't run that long very often this year but I felt really good. I had my fast shoes on and put down a 8:09 average. Cool. I knew Ogden filled up fast but a week? Crazy. I missed it. No biggie. I was debating between Ogden and Utah Valley. I guess the decision was made for me so I signed up. I hope to run some long runs with some of you that are running Ogden. I think that will get me some extra miles early that I always seem to be lacking in my marathon training. |
