Run home from the park

The wind was BLOWING, I have been sick, I’m getting about 3-4 hours of sleep each night (teething/sick baby)…. excuses, excuses.  I ate too much and hydrated too little over the last few days.  I’ll be running again tomorrow if I can!

Run with husband

Went for a quick run today.  A slow, easy pace with the hubby.  It was cold (about 30) and so I had my first run in the cold practice.  I’ve decided I need to learn to run in the cold so I can run when I’m back in AK but can’t make it to the gym.

So… a hat and light gloves today.  Think I’ll wear my ski-mouth-mask-thing next time until I can warm up my lungs.  Also had on my HH thermals with running-capri and shirt over.  Any colder and I’d like my perfrom fleece too.  Also need warmer shoes/socks.

Any suggestions from anyone?
