What a blustery day! The air temp was just 30 deg. but with the wind it felt like 18deg.! When it's this cold I usually obsess the night before what i should wear. The sun was out so I layered with a long sleeve tech tee, a pullover fleece on top of that, and finally my Salomon Fast Wing Hoody II Jacket, (no worries, this is NOT an affiliate link) one of the best running gear purchases I've made and one of my favorites! It's a very light weight jacket that's wind AND water resistant. It kept me comfortable and warm in my run this morning! I highly recommend it!
After my first two not-so-great runs of the new year, I was relieved to finally be able to run past 2 miles this morning (3.5 miles) without huffing and puffing and feeling like crap. My pace was slower, but it helped me ease into my run and get into a rhythm. I knew I was going too fast yesterday and Sunday!
Well, I'm happy and mostly relieved that I'm coming around because today's run starts off my half marathon training for The Carefirst Rock N Roll USA Half Marathon in mid-March! Yeah!
Anyone else running this race too?
