Winter RUNNER. Miles 9-12

Okay..... so. it is COLD. Goodness, where did this come from??? Usually we have time to enjoy sweaters, leggings and cute light scarfs for a couple months. BUT NO - break out the wool coats, bean boots and wool socks! I actually needed a heated blanket!
 
So this challenge is being tested. Since it is SO cold, I am SO not wanting to be outside. Wednesday was a mile and some change. One loop before it got too dark to be out in my neighborhood alone. I am still laughing from this evening experience - I thought I could still wear capri workout pants and still be okay. BOY was I wrong. I got about 0.25 miles away from my house and lost it. Every swear word you could think of was coming out of my mouth. REGRET. Capris are now being tucked away for the winter. NEVER AGAIN.


 
Thursday was 3 miles - HOORAA! It was super cold and my muscles were not wanting to move (because of my previous two evenings of circuit trainings). But I got to use my new jacket! It comes down over the hands to keep secure under my gloves :)


 
Still on target for the challenge. I have to saw, running more miles in an evening than just one is more exhilarating - knowing you have more to run keeps my thoughts in check. I am thinking this 3 mile loop will become a trend.
 
Friday will be a break day for me - After work I am going to spend the evening quilting, sipping tea and enjoying my family.
 
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!
