I am way behind on reading the posts, and way behind on running.
Had a minor car accident at the weekend (rear-end shunt in the outside lane of the motorway pushed me into the car in front) so an all a bit stiff. I am quite keen to give running a go as I think it might help loosen things, but I've not been sleeping well either so that's rather taken priority.
Might scrap this week and start again at the weekend! Puts me behind schedule but better take things easy.0 -

I am half Canadian and half Russian, so there's no excuse for me! We just are not used to it here.
Just been out for a club run. Possibly my last run before my half on Saturday, or might put in a couple of easy miles on Friday to get the legs moving. Either way, the training is done, sub-2 is ON

@louubelle16 Thanks for the book recommendation. I looked it up on Amazon and it looks like something I'd enjoy reading. I have some Google Play credit so I'll probably download it from there.0

@dkabambe sounds like a great run!
@MNLittleFinn Wow, that hill workout sounds compliceted. Can you programm it all into the TM before starting, or do you have to keep track of time and change it manually from one step to the next?
@girlinahat I hope you are fine after that car accident! Taking it easy and recovering from that is more important than racing after your monthly goal, if you are still feeling bad after it.
@7lenny7 If you think running in fog sounds fun, you should have visited me during the past three weeks. If we didn't have fog every single night since end of November, we've definitely come close.
I hope your family will all have save trips in that crazy winter weather you've got!

I hope I won't get sick so shortly before Christmas. My dear office mate has a horrible cold, but refuses to stay home. She's been sneezing, coughing and blowing her nose at me for three days in a row now. Today it was actually so bad that I went home early to finish my work remotely (something I've been suggesting to her about a million times this week...).
I am actually feeling more tired than usual, so I only ran half my planned distance today, and took it really slow.
Now I'm just waiting for my dinner to melt (oven cheese - mjam!), and then I'll go to bed real early.1 -

Seconded - have added to my wishlist hoping someone might get me for Xmas!0 -
@_nikkiwolf_ I never understand why people who are sick don't stay home. The girl in the office next to me brings in her kids when they are sick, hey thanks! It's bad enough she comes in when she's sick, but now we have little ones who don't cover their mouths are coughing like they are going to die and all I hear all day is "mommy I don't feel good" "Mommy I'm tired" If they are so sick they need to stay home the poor babies should be in bed, not your office. yipes!1

I'm over half Norwegian and lived in Wisconsin my first 25 years yet I have quickly adapted to desert life. I have my 20 miles in Wisconsin and I have been buying extra layers and accessories so I don't freeze to death.0 -

Oh no! Glad you are ok for the most part. I wish people would learn to just pay attention when they drive.0 -
@_nikkiwolf_ I had to change things manually. I ended up finishing like 6 minutes early, so I probably cut some of the low % incline times short. It was a pain to try to run and read tiny font in prep for the next interval. Kept my mind occupied though.0

Rest day for me today!@greenolivetree - awesome medal! yay chili! I wouldn't eat chili prior to running though.
Last year I stayed with my grandfather while I was out east for the Baltimore Marathon. He decided to make his famous chili the night before the race. I didn't want to be rude, so I just cooked up a box of pasta and put the chili over it (and tried not to have too much). Surprsingly, I didn't have any stomach issues during the race.

Daily check-in.
Yesterday I felt a bit beat up in the morning, then felt fine by noon and ran 6 miles of hills in the evening. Today I felt a bit beat up in the morning again. Hmm, there seems to be a pattern here. How many days in a row have I run? Oh yeah, eight days. Time for a rest day. Granted, Sunday was only about two and a half miles and was as a slow pace, but still . . . I'm not in a formal training program right now. Time for a rest day.
Got out to do a bit of Christmas shopping, got some odds and ends of groceries, and took a walk in the remaining good weather (mid-20s F, perhaps 8 mph wind). Overnight low is supposed to be 13º F, tomorrow's high 18º F with snow accumulating 1 to 3 inches. But it's just lake effect snow, which means I might see a half inch in my driveway. As long as it isn't deep enough to have plows everywhere, it will be good running weather tomorrow. I'll put some more miles on the Peregrines that didn't see much duty earlier this year in the mild winter.
Still haven't decided about signing up for Reindeer Run 5K next Saturday. If push comes to shove, I don't have to register till that morning; but if I don't register in advance, my chances of getting out of bed in time for the race aren't very good. It could be an interesting run if we get some fresh snow; the forecast doesn't look like what we have on the ground will melt between now and Saturday.
Edit to add: Wrote that, went and looked at registration, and saw that the fee goes up at midnight. Made the decision, signed up for the 5K. Should be a nice winter run.1 -

12/14: 6 miles + lifting
Did a solid lifting session followed by 6 miles with intervals on the treadmill (1 mile warm up, 4 miles of varying speeds, 1 mile cool down). Starting to definitely feel the DOMS from the lifting and the 9.0 mph interval (which I ran for a quarter mile TWICE, ouch!), so I'm really looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow
It was really nice though to have this hard, long workout and get in my new car and not worry about whether my clutch leg will give out on the way home. That's one of the only things I hated with my stick shift (the other: bumper to bumper, start-stop traffic).

8 km along the River Bank with 6 members of the club - the usual group of suspects/victim's.
-21C No Wind - Full Moon so quite an enjoyable evening run.
I was running with one of the ladies who is just a little faster than me. I have no problem with my cardio-respiratory when running at the faster pace - it's the old Injured Calf Muscle that starts to twinge once I get up to the 160 SPM. At 150 SPM no trouble no issues. Frustrating that an extra 10 steps per minute could start to induce calf strains. GRRrr

Damn, it's cold. Currently 6F. More of the same tomorrow.
Did 5.5 miles on the treadmill tonight. Sweat a lot, which was absolutely wonderful once I got back outside. That was sarcasm.
My next opportunity to run will be Saturday. It is supposed to be somewhat warmer, with a "wintry mix" in the forecast. If there's any way I can get out there and run, I will. For the record, I can't get to a treadmill on Saturdays because I'm usually at my mom's all day. So I run in her neighborhood.
Currently only at 38 miles for the month. Should be at 50 if I want to make 100. Sigh.0 -

It only gets to -2C mimimum here! And that's maybe one or two mornings a year.
I have a friend in Calgary who runs at -20C!
That is just incredible to me, but she says she sees at least 10 other runners when she does it in the early morning.louubelle16 wrote: »@RespectTheKitty, I read a great book to help me use running to calm down periods of anxiety and depression, shortly after I was taken off anti depressants earlier this year.

My goal is 50 miles this month. My job is crying for us to pick up overtime.
12/2....4.73 miles on the treadmill, rolling hills, pace at 13:20, average heart rate at 82% max.
12/4....2.85 miles on the treadmill.
12/7....3.52 miles on the treadmill, max heart rate at 88%, pace at 13:02.

12/13....4.42 miles on the treadmill, max heart rate at 88%, pace at 11:19
I had the flu over the weekend. Felt better today...still with some stomach issues but better than yesterday. Going to stay away from dairy for a while to see if it helps.Initially thought the body aches were due to Zercher squats.
12/14.....4.98 miles on the treadmill.Not going to risk getting sick again.
Total...24.47 miles
Goal....50 miles.

@kristinegift - it's funny you mention your clutch leg because the past few weeks I've had a problem with my driving leg. It hurts whenever I am driving - the hamstring area. I decided it was the angle of the seat and I don't see a way to really adjust it. So I put a pillow in my seat yesterday to help with the angle of my leg/foot when pressing gas/brake and it does seem a little better. But last night I mentioned it to my trainer and he thinks it is my sciatic nerve. He's not 100% sure of course and if it gets worse I'll need to go to a doctor. But he gave me some stretches to do for my back. It rarely hurts at any other time. Whenever I do a lot of driving it happens (ever since I got this car - a Prius).
I don't know how any of you run in those freezing temperatures! I live in Orlando and we have not had a day < 32F in a few years. Whenever it is in the 40s, we drag out gloves, huge coats, boots, etc. Every year we usually have a new teacher or two from up north and their first winter they will wear sandals, no coats, etc., the entire winter, even if it is 40. Then after a couple years, they are as bundled up as the rest of us.

4 miles in 37:30 (9:23 pace) in -10F windchill. I wasn't really concerned with pace/speed as I just wanted to get it over with. Almost convinced myself to take an earlier turn for home when my eyelashes started freezing together and I could feel my shin/knee starting to nag me. Might not have been a bad idea now that I'm home and my shin is in some more pain than I'd like. I don't think running with the StabilIcers are helping my shin and I could have probably gone with regular road shoes today but I wasn't sure how icy the roads would be. I think I may revise my weekend running plans for a Sunday long run depending on how things feel. I wore: 2 headbands, buff, long sleeved compression top, thick short sleeved tech shirt, fleece lined Brooks running jacket with flip mitts, fleece lined leggings, smart wool socks, and two pairs of gloves. Fingers hurt from the cold after the first mile but were fine after I flipped the mitts over on my jacket. Only thing I would have changed was adding another layer on bottom as my butt and legs were the only thing that stayed cold the entire run.2 -

12/13- 5.01
12/14- 5.4
12/15- 4.0 after a 30 min eliptical workout.
Total: 78.07
Nominal mileage goal: 100 miles
Real goal, get into the swing of Marathon training, and get used to doing 3 days a week of some strength/core while running 35+ MPW
Today's notes: Today's assignment was originally 8 miles at 10:37 pace. With temp -7 and a windchill advisory, I decided inside was the better choice. So, to do something new, coach/aunt had me do this elliptical workout. She said I could go for it twice, but I just didn't feel right not running, and she gave the OK for a run AFTER the elliptical workout.
Ran 4 miles on the TM, varying the speed between 5.4 and 6.5, and messing with just a little bit of incline. Basically a TM Fartlek run.
So, I didn't get in my 8 miles, but I'm still on track to keep my mileage decent for the week, though I might break the 30% rule with my LR, since the elliptical mileage isn't counting toward my total, have to check tomorrow's assignment to see.0 -
Just reading all of y'all's posts are making me cold. 55F as a low here today (although we have a cold front coming) I don't think I would set foot outside let alone run at much below freezing. Bunch of crazy people on here0

@louubelle16 I you!
@Orphia If your Calgary friend was to get in her car and point it North she would need to drive hard for 8-9 hours to reach my little town. To me she is close to being one of the Southern Belle's.
@OSUbuckeye906 look at you getting it done in the cold 4 miles in 37:30 (9:23 pace) in -10F windchill.
I like that you didn't worry about pace and that was a great self evaluation Post Run of clothing and shoes. I find most of the Slip on Traction Aids change the foot-strike too much for my comfort so I have one pair of Screw Shoes. The rest of the time it is just Trail Shoes as they have a little better traction. LOL at Eye lashes freezing together that's a sign that you get to take the title of Winter Warrior and add it to your running titles. I believe some one called them Lash-icicles.1 -

Rest day yesterday. Tonight I'll run after my son's basketball game. Looking forward to getting back outside, particularly tomorrow. Tonight will be a moderate 3F. Tomorrow night will be 14F with heavy snow!!! I may make Friday night my long run and enjoy the beauty of winter that much longer. Kody is crazy about the snow too so he won't object.
@lissadecker while I wouldn't go so far as to call myself a Deadhead (I have a minimal tie-dye wardrobe), I do love listening to the Dead both at work and on my runs. I'm an all-around jamband fan, leaning mostly towards The Allman Brothers, Grateful Dead, Derek Trucks/Tedeshi Trucks, Galactic, Leftover Salmon, Bela Fleck, Karl Denson, The New Mastersounds, Little Feat, Steve Kimock Band, Yonder Mountain String Band, etc.
@RespectTheKitty don't worry about making your goal. December is a tough month for running with winter and the holidays. I've only hit my goal 3 months so far this year. Goals are nice to hit and can provide motivation but like you say, just run when and where you can and be proud that you're getting out there!
@greenolivetree congrats on the chili win!! Very cool! I have a 20 mile race in February and at the finish line they'll be serving up what is supposed to be some pretty good chili, as well as kegs of craft beer. I'm expecting that day to be calorie neutral.
@ddmom0811 years back I helped design a power plant in Kissimmee. That January I flew down there during construction and they had a cold snap. I actually had to scrape the frost off my windshield that morning. By noon it was back up into the 40's. I was wearing short sleeves and all the construction workers were in big puffy coats, telling me I was crazy.
@MNLittleFinn I think you'll be ok breaking the 30% rule. I break it nearly every week. I track that actually and looking back, the last time it was 30% or less was in May. Since the beginning of the year my long runs, on average, are 42% of my weekly totals. This is only counting weeks with at least 3 runs.
@OSUbuckeye906 great job getting out in the cold!!

I totally failed. I've camped at single digits. I don't know if it is because I'm getting old or because I lost so much fat this year, but I just can't take the lower temps. I said I was going to go out for a run yesterday evening or this evening (haven't been out since Sun. where I bundled up too much and had a terrible sweaty run on a warm day in 30's F). Yesterday, I decided it was too cold and windy. Today, I have a late meeting (scheduled for convenience of people meeting from Japan), and I have a lot to do anyway, so figure I'll just be at work until very late. I guess it just isn't going to happen until the weekend. I am seriously considering buying a punch card for the fitness center in town despite their terrible hours. Having a chance to get there once or twice per week is better than no times per week outside.0
