Went running again yesterday even though it was a frigid 20 degrees, maybe less with the windchill, I'm not sure. It made me have a newfound respect for all of you who live in places that are way colder than Maryland all year long. I don't think I could take running in the cold all the time.

Although something about yesterday's run was refreshing. Maybe it was the fact that even though it was frigid outside, it was still sunny and I started to get warm once I started moving. Maybe it was just the fact that I had missed running when it was really realllllly cold out and am enjoying being back into it. I don't really know, but needless to say it was a pretty great run. Even though I hadn't been running for a while I seemed to be able to maintain my usual pace for most of the run.

I'm hoping to be able to shave some time off my mileage times so that this time around I race a little bit faster. Unfortunately I know that means hitting the track for some intervals. EWWW-y lol. But I will definitely be putting those off until it gets warmer. Right now I just really need to focus on building my endurance again.

It's soooo good to be back!!!

Can't wait til I get to race in VA! (See previous post for details!)
