Wow, good job monmis12 and Tabbycat!

Where I live, the air pollution is really bad during the winter months, and we're advised not to exercise outside . . . it sucks.

I'm going to get a pass to my local rec center. If I can't run outside, I'll run inside and/or do the elliptical.

I forgot how much summer time depresses me...

I went for a run this afternoon. It was only a short 3km. I didn't want to go but I made myself. I almost gave up when my phone wouldn't load my app properly.

Sigh. I don't like the heat or the hot sun...

Rhiko - I am the EXACT OPPOSITE of you. I LOVE running in the heat. I HATE the cold so badly. It was -10 degrees (Faren) here this morning and snowing like a b!tch.

I have been relegated to the treadmill which I hate. 10 miles on Sunday - it felt like 3X that! Going to try to do 7 tonight.

Luckily it doesn't snow where I am, but I really don't like the heat. It's probably because I grew up playing soccer in the winter. I don't know. I am just resistant to go out these days BECAUSE of the heat AND the wind always seems to blow in my direction, no matter which direction I'm running.

I ran an 8 miler in a state park on Saturday. It was unseasonably warm but the rain did hold off. It involved running over a bridge over the TN river and running back as well as running up, down, and all around a park. I enjoyed it. Its part of a series and had some very competitive runners. I average a 10 min mile for anything over 4 miles and that is what I ran. I was happy because it did have a lot of hills.

Next Saturday, I'm running a half in FL so this is taper week. I'm headed out for an easy 3 mile run in a few minutes.

Keep up the walking, Gayle, but let your body heal!!!!

I might actually get to run outside tommorow!!! We have a TON of snow, but the roads are pretty clear for the first time in weeks!
