OK, I can't resist a chance to brag about my progress in becoming a runner. I'm thinking of running in the Reykjavik Marathon in August, so I'm doing a pre-training training schedule to prepare for that. I've never been a natural (or fast) runner, but it's something I've come to enjoy over the past 6 months or so.

My training schedule calls for 70 miles in January, but I think I'm going to replace 10 miles of that with cross-training because if I run 5 days a week I'm definitely going to get burnt out on it. So, 60 is the goal and today I did the first 4, slower than I'd hoped but it was COLD and windy out in gorgeous Central Park.

4/60

PS Helen - your blog is where I found out about 3FC, and I've been a regular reader of yours over the past couple years. You are a weight loss and running superstar!

Temps stayed below zero both yesterday and today. I was bummed to have to use the TM, but bit the bullet and got going. Nothing to be proud of 6 miles in almost 90 minutes, but I didn't stop!!

Eastcoastgirl, I am REALLY impressed that you ran today! I was frozen just walking from the subway to my apartment, which is only 2 blocks.

I did 5.7 miles on the elliptical tonight - pretty happy with that distance. Usually I get bored and give up.

It's made it to 6* above zero today, but the wind is blowing at 9 mph. Raw is what it is so, I did 4 on the TM. Today was a scheduled day off, but there isn't a whole lot anyone wants to do when it's this cold and I only had about 30 min of work today. Get ahead, you never know what tomorrow will bring!!

Default I'll do this!

I'm just now getting over being sick, sick, sick. But I would like to try this.

I'll go for 30 miles this month for January.

My friends and I are doing our own weight loss challenge and I just lost $20 the other day. I want that money for myself next month!
