Okay, it is March 29, almost April, and I was COLD on today's run. Of course, Chris says I am always cold, but that is beside the point. It was sunny, but the breeze was very chilly.
It is spring break, so after working on projects around the house, I hit the road. I should have worn a jacket, but I didn't. Luckily I warmed up a bit as I got running. I wanted to go 5 miles, but the wind makes it a bit harder. I logged 4.62 miles and kept an 11:32 pace. That is faster than the last two runs--I think I was trying to get home to warm up!
I actually ran my second mile in 10:59, just under 11 minutes! If I could do more of those, it would be great. Of course, I am still running on the roads around home and the hills are the killers. I keep telling myself that the hills are strengthening my muscles and making me stronger. I sure hope it is true! (It is)
When my hair began to turn gray abundantly, a kindergartener pointed to my hair and said, "Mrs. Wheatley, you have silver highlights!" So, I'm not turning gray, I have Silver Highlights! And I'm a runner. This blog is about my adventures as a runner and asthmatic. Read on to follow my journey on my weekly runs and many races.
