I run slow but pretty even pace according to my Garmin.
Maybe I am used to treadmills, don't know. Going to the gym right from work.

I've noticed that I run faster in the cold weather, too -- or maybe it just feels like it.
I ran/cycled several days last week which was wonderful, but this week seems to be more difficult because I'm trying to get ready for our dinner on Thursday -- on short notice. Then today, one of my children was ill, and attending school activities. Oh, well.

I only ran for about 15 minutes before I had to take a short break. But then I did 20 minutes on the exercise bike.

I had a decent run tonight. 3.1 kind of slow, but not too bad. Next up, the Turkey Trot on Thursday!

Good luck to all those racing today! I chose not to run last night but will this morning - although not in a race.

stellaluna--nicely done!!!
Wednesday evening I went up to Grandma's. Early Thanksgiving morning I went for a run in my hometown. Not much zip in my step, but it was a very enjoyable run. We came home Thursday evening.
Friday morning ds1 and I rode back up to Grandma's. We ended up with strong crosswinds. It was a very difficult 85mile ride! We rode home today. Again, wind was not our friend. We had headwinds all day! But, it was warm and sunny, so it was pretty enjoyable.

Well I am excited. I did my 40 minutes without stopping. I think it helped that my friend came in 1/2 way through my run at the gym, and was talking to me, and so I did not pay attention to my running. It was nice to have the distration. But Yeah! I had to slow my sprints down, but I am able to do it!
Now my complaint. My back hurts tonight. :( Too much walking in the stores. :)

I ran on the treadmill today 2 miles and walked a mile. It started snowing, and it hasn't stopped. Its supposed to be about 6 inches..visibility was down too so only those who wanted to get killed should be out running on the side of the road.

I have done that before. I hate the little safety thing, the strings are so long I sometimes hit it accidentally. It won't turn on either if you remove it.
I am asking for a pair of running shorts for christmas. My mom always decides that she'll get something different though so who knows what I'll end up with. Hmm.

Well I am so excited, as I got 3 new tanks for running. The ones I have been using are really not apropriate for mixed company anymore as my chest grew.
Next I want new shorts, but I will try for that after Christmas. Maybe there will be a great sale. :)

Kristin--I have the 305 and love it! I had a 301 for a couple years and it worked pretty well, but the 305 is certainly better! I gave the 301 to ds1 and he's pretty happy with it.
I went for a swim yesterday. It was good for working out a bit of the stiffness in my legs. My arms were still dead, so I cut it to 2000yds, rather than the 3-4000yds planned.
This morning I went for a run. Just a neighborhood trot. 4.5miles I think? At a 9:20pace. My legs are still a bit sore, but I was wanting to run, so I'm happy with the run.

I have the 305. It's great. They last a long time too so you'll definitely get a lot of use out of it.

It was pretty chilly this morning - upper 20s. Brrrrrr!
I think it might have been close to four miles. Four and a half? Grrr...who knows...
Tomorrow is my day off and I actually think I earned it!
