What did you do?

First run outdoors in forever planned for tomorrow

I also had my first outdoor run in weeks over the weekend due to the severe cold and snow and ice. I did 8 miles and felt strong, but my knees felt the pounding from the cement after getting used to the TM. But it was nice to get outside for a long run again, especially now that it's snowing again today and the temps have dropped again. I did another 4 miles on the TM Monday.

For those of you disappointed New Balance isn't selling shoes at the Expo anymore, there are limited NB shoes on the online store. Very limited. And not what the Expo had.

Participated in a hilly 5 km (which really was 5.5 km) night race in the rain in a local park. Despite temperatures about 10 degrees warmer than Marathon weekend, and no long wait before the race (in fact, no wait at all - we arrived 1 minute before the start ) I decided I needed to be warmly dressed ... which only meant I was peeling off layers as I ran and tying them around my waist Fun race (everyone was wearing glow sticks and the like) but a bit "scary" - I'm not used to a running lamp and had to be really careful because there were lots of areas where the asphalt in the path was uneven because of roots, not to mention all the huge puddles because of the rain.

7.5KM // 4.6M in 35:31.

Outdoor run in perfect weather (39 degrees), clear sky, some sun, no wind.
Went so smoothly, easy pace (turned out quicker than I planned) and without a terrible struggle. So happy, since it has been months since I've run this far without a break and I couldnt be happier, certainly with the ease of it.

And to celebrate that, I did some weight training afterwards. I'll regret that tomorrow.

Yeah, you can find them on the New Balance website as well. They have done a couple of other collaborations recently, I think I've seen shoes for Cars and the live action Beauty & The Beast. Not sure if they just decided to stop doing the races but keep working with Disney, or what.

9 miles Saturday, felt GREAT! The post-marathon time off always works. 30 and sunny, no wind. Still some snow in the shade and check out the frozen fountain. Both of these were taken during my run Saturday.

Very nice photo.

Great pictures.

I was able to walk today and did some weight training to rest and recover: chest, legs and cardio on a bike.

Short run then stretching today.

After a Frozen Saturday I restarted the morning work day runs this morning with a 3-miler. It was 63F.

But cold mornings are coming back.

Woken up rudely by a charley horse, massaging it out then my alarm went off for my 3-miler in freezing temps. Hit the foam roller, got layered up and hit the road. Is it Monday?
