4.62 miles ~~ COLD breeze but sunny

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)
