    Can't wait for my first half tomorrow! Been looking forward to this for a while! Will be nice to get some miles back in again. I haven't run for several days now, resting for this half (and because of sore ankles after the last run).

    Oh, it's supposed to snow tomorrow. Starting just before the race. I've never run in the snow before. I'm actually kind of excited to have this be my first attempt.

    Nice 4 mile trail run this morning with 754ft of climb, bit of a lung buster but feels good now i'v done it. Brings my total to 33.4 with 36.6 to do so nearly half way.
    Wow - that's quite a hill!

    I got in 3.25 miles of walking. Sometimes it's nice to slow it down and just let your mind wander a bit.
    It is good to take it down a notch and just enjoy! Hopefully it wasn't too cold!

    12/30: 5.4 - 11/1/14; 2 - 11/11/14; 2.6 - 11/13/14. I did not run at all last week. I could not find the will to do anything last week, but I am back on track.

    On the 11th, I made it through the sprinkles of rain, and today I made it through the flurries of snow (and ice on the ground). My legs were numb, but I made it.
    Good for you getting back on track and making it through the rain, snow and ice! Great job!!

    First cold run ever, 37º with freezing winds making it feel even colder. At first I was having trouble, but then I stopped focusing on how cold I was and just ran and eventually warmed up.
    That's what you have to do to keep at it!

    Ran a PB of 25:56 at the 5k this morning. I did my first race in September after finishing the c25k program. Now it's just trying to get faster.

    But I also need to keep my mileage goal up for November...so on the good advice from Stoshew, I'm going to get back out this morning for an easy 4-5 miles....
