Running in the Cold...
Well you all know that I am training for my first marathon. Yikes. So far it has been good. It is not like I have never ran anything before. The longest distance I have ever ran is 12 miles and I didn't die when I was done. That being said I HATE running on the treadmill. I just won't do it. Which makes a little bit of a problem for me living in the frozen tundra. So far I have not had to run on the treadmill once. Yes it has been cold but ok once you start going. But this last Saturday is was -2 when I headed out!!!!! FREEZING. Good thing we had date night, Friday night and headed to my favorite store Lululemon to see what they had that I could wear to run in. I bought this coat that I am wearing in the pictures above. It is called the Hustle Jacket. I have to admit that once I got about two miles into my run I called Bryan and had him meet me at a gas station with more socks. My feet were the only thing that was cold! It was really a great run although it was cold it was very peaceful and beautiful out. I had the trails all to myself.

ReplyDeleteI love the jacket too!
ReplyDeleteThat gray shirt I have under my coat has flaps that I can put over my hands. It is great. Then when I get going and feel hot I can un do them.
