Figured it was time to post again. Starting back up running a week or so ago - a friend tried to lure me over to the Kilo side of thing..so lately the majority of my runs have been 10K's. I didn't realize how easy it would be to complete that kind of distance numerous times a week. But I guess when you have a decent baseline, your body can do wonderous things.
The weather today was lower 50's, sunny, and very windy. As I ran out to the grocery story and saw the sun shining bright, I knew that it was a perfect day for a run. The wind was supposed to kick in in the late afternoon, so I was hopeful I could home from the store and out the door before the wind kicked up too much.
Left the house - set my Nike+ to do a 10K and boy was I wrong. The wind hit me as soon as I turned off my street...and the sun was behind the clouds...crap...whose idea was this again...got out onto the major road and life was good. My new softskin base layer top from skirtsports was fantastic. Kept me warm in the cold - yet didn't make me hot the few times the sun came out.
I will say - I have a new favorite shirt to run in. Just love how it feels, not too tight and super soft! Plus with the seemommyrun logo it looks great with a pair of teal running shots!
I'm only a little bit sad that it will not be getting much more wear - my favorite running weather is just weeks away!
anyway - back to my run - turned a corner and knew that I was less then a mile from home. My handy Nike+ said 11K - how can I be this close to 15K and not go for it...so I took a few detours and finished up at my house in 15.02K . Even got a bonus congratulations from Mr. Lance Armstrong through my ipod...very cool!
Going out to sunny CA next weekend - definately hoping to put in a few miles out there.
