Windy January Tempo

Today I went for a run in gusty 15mph winds and ‘feels like’ 32 degree weather. I had every intent of getting up early, but the sounds of the 20mph winds at 4 o’dark did not motivate me. Instead I laced up, left school and drove to the park to run. I took on a tempo run and the first fast paced run since before the Rehoboth Marathon. It felt great!

Dead Legs

Today I went for a run and did our “Taco Bell Harbor Half” with the girls. We had an early 5:45am start at the Taco Bell downtown and finished in time for me to get back and take the kids to Faith Formation. My legs were dead, but I decided to add on five more hilly miles while they were in class. My last two long runs have been on dead legs which makes me nervous for Miami in a few weeks. Overall I had a solid 43 mile week and a great start to 2019.
