3.4 miles--Windy!

Today we had a reception for an administrator that is leaving, so I didn't get home as early as I had hoped.  I wasn't sure how far I would be able to make it before it got too dark to run.  Yesterday was 65 degrees, and driving home today it was 35 degrees.  I should have run yesterday!

I did get all bundled up and decided to wear my hat with the lights my daughter gave me, just in case it got dark.  Luckily, I didn't even have to turn the lights on, it is already staying lighter later every night.  Even though it stayed light, the air was cold and very windy.  A couple of times, my hat and hood were blown right off!  My eyes were tearing up due to the wind the last 1/2 mile and I ended up with a slight headache.  

But I did get out there, I ran 3.4 miles and kept a 12 minute pace again.  I pushed myself up a few of the hills and made sure I continued to run instead of walk.  That is definitely an improvement over my more recent runs.
