    So, morning runs are definitely easier than afternoon runs.

        34 is cold, but 34 in the rain must have been miserable. Only 385 to go- You Can Do This!

        Was out of town for business which messes up my running schedule. Missed one of my days and had a sluggish run the one day I got out.

        Got a chance to break out a new long sleeve running shirt this morning. Also had a chance to try my new running socks (was getting blisters with my other socks). Had a nice 6.3 run this morning and my long run scheduled (9 miles) for Sunday.

        With the colder weather coming next week, I'm going to try to buy some more winter gear this weekend. As a new runner, I'm struggling trying to figure out how many layers I will need for each run. It was 46 and sunny when I left this morning. The long sleeve base layer shirt and shorts were perfect. Next week it's forecast to be in the 30s in the morning...I'm thinking a thin running jacket as another layer...I'm worried about having too many clothes than not enough....any advice?

        I was driving my daughter to school this morning and she said "Mom can you register me for the Bridge Street Half Marathon?". I was shocked she has never shown much interest in running a race over 10K. I'm so excited she wants to challenge herself like that.
        I'm so exited for you! Will you run it with her?

        I'm going to register her, but I told her she can't run next to me. She just talks and talks and talks LOL She ran with me this morning. About mile 5 she said I'm going home and left me. She's run up to 7 miles with me so I know she can do the HM if she works some. It's not until April so she has plenty of time.

        11/1 - 6.2 first 10K completed!
        11/2 - rest day
        11/3 - 6.72 miles
        11/4 - 7.68 miles
        11/5 - 6.53 miles
        11/6 - rest day
        11/7 - 6.3 miles - okay I'm going to whine about the 25 mph wind out of the North. But will say it was cool to see the sun coming up in the East while the moon was going down in the West.
        11/8 - 9.53 miles

        Total: 42.96 miles out of 100

        I'll update ticker on Monday.

        I have a clothing temperature scale. Over 70 I wear a tank top, 60 - 70 short sleeves, 45 - 60 long sleeves, under 45 I'll wear a dri fit pullover or dri fit sweatshirt, if it's like 35 I'll wear long sleeves under it over 40 I'll put a short sleeve on. I tend to put something on under so that if I took the top layer off while running I'd still be comfortable. I run all year in either capri running pants or long pants. I can count the times I've worn shorts, but I'm just weird like that. I can never find a pair I'm really comfortable in. There is also a big difference if it's windy or cloudy compared to sunny.

        Usually if my hands are warm and my ears are covered I'm okay. Your mileage may vary.

        I struggle with the right layers too. I always need far less clothing than I think I'm going to need. There's a good chart in this Runners World article. It's down the page at #21 the10 Degree Rule. Hope it helps!

        It's so funny to me that chatter drives you bonkers while you're trying to run. I love having friends to run with, because we talk the miles away. What 10 miles finished already? Where did the miles go?
