I Hate the Cold

It is so cold here. Fortunately, I did my long run for the week on the last good weather day. unfortunately, 5.9 miles is NOT enough to get me through the winter without having to run again.

I wish like anything that I could even semi-enjoy treadmill running. i once read about a marathoner from Alaska who ran 8 hours a day on a treadmill to train. I can't do that. I will lose my mind and have to be institutionalized if I have to run like a hamster on that contraption for very long,

my husband, God love him, wants to buy me warm running gear for christmas. that is wonderful! Except that ther are still 5 more weeks until Christmas and I may get frostbitten first. Oh well, I guess I will soldier on and whine later. I have to go map a run.

It's cold here too. That on top of my knee has made running really hard.
