Day 14 - Hard to Typppe, Fingerrrs Still Numb
This is more like the Fort Collins I expect in February. 31 degrees, and a fresh dusting of snow on the lawn and roofs but the pavement is mostly just wet. Big storm last night, lots of wind, but it rained mostly, only turning to snow late. The pavement looked clear, so I decided to bundle up and head out again on the same course as yesterday. I was fine for a while, other than dodging a few icy patches, until the wind kicked up again. It sliced through my gloves and fleece like I wasn't wearing any. Within minutes I was a human popsicle. But I made it back to the hotel, and it didn't take too long for my hands to warm up enough to be able to unzip my pocket and get my key. Ran about an 8:50 pace over the 5.3 mile course today. Completed another week of running, and all the joints felt fine today!
Miles run: this week - 29.3 total - 67.1
Average miles per day: this week - 4.3 overall - 4.8
Time running: this week - 4 hours 24 minutes, total - 10 hours 29 minutes
Average pace this week: about 9:00/mile
Weight lost - still none

Keep in mind the guy who started lifting a baby calf every day, thinking he could keep it up until it became a full-grown cow. OK, a not quite perfect analogy, but listen to your knees and other parts--just in case you may need to count a jog across the bedroom as one day's run now and then.
