Packet Pick-up

Today I warmed up for 5 minutes on treadmill, then jogged 4 miles (2 mi. at "5" and 2 miles at "4.8") on the treadmill.  Finished with a 5 minute cooldown.  I was dreading this, but it wasn't too bad, just very boring.  I'm looking forward to running with a group outside for the run camp.

Speaking of run camp, I picked up my packet at Gazelle's tonight.  Stayed for a "how to dress in cold weather" clinic.  It was quite informative.  Found out I can use my silk long-underwear (that I got for Alaska) to wear as my base layer.  Silk has good wicking properties.  I think I'll get a fleece shirt to go over that and maybe a jacket with reflective tape.  I'm going to check out some of the less expensive stores.

I'm getting excited!

Still delinquent!

I'm not back into the swing of remembering to write every day.  Last week I only made 4 days of exercise. :(

This week is going well, so far.  Sunday:  jogged outside 2.4 miles, walked 5 minutes
Monday:  20 minute Pilates video, 10 minutes osteo DVD
Tuesday:  rebounder 30 minutes

Tomorrow is the day to pick up my info packet for the 1/2 marathon at Gazelle Sports and learn about what to wear in cold weather (our group runs will be outside).  Don't know if I'll make it b/c of the blizzard.  It's really snowing and blowing here.  Everything is cancelled for tomorrow.

Sat. is the 1st group run for the Borgess Run Camp.  I'm excited and nervous.  The 1st run is 4 miles.  I'll be placed in a group of 12-minute milers (that's the slowest they have). 

Need to get on the treadmill tomorrow. I WON'T be running outside!
