| I was back outside in the cold temperatures this morning. It was in the upper 20's when I got started and it felt like it. I knew that it was cold when I put on a sweatshirt on top of my long sleeve shirt and did not feel hot. I was bundled up and felt good. I completed the run in 1:22:30, which I am very happy about. My legs felt good especially during those last few miles. The only down side was that my nose runs in this weather as if I had a cold. |

| I was able to sleep in once again this morning, which was quite nice, although I have found it a bit harder to get moving when I do this. I did eventually get myself out the door a little after 10:00am. It was sunny and cold again, with temperatures in the upper 20's. I never found that comfortable stride like I did yesterday. I stopped at 6.25, mainly because I was very close to home and really needed to use the restroom. |

| These are WALKING MILES! I had my hair done on Tuesday. The process that I had done prevents me from getting it wet until late Friday afternoon, therefore I cannot sweat, which rules running out. Since it is freezing outside, I can walk, which is what I did. I walked the first mile in 18 minutes with my dogs. I then went home and exchanged the dogs for some music. I was able to walk the final 4.3 miles at just over a 16 minute mile pace. Walking was a nice change, but it definitely does not feel like the same workout as running. My goal was to get moving and burn at least something off this body. |

| These are WALKING MILES! I can wash the hair as of late this afternoon, which means I can be out running tomorrow morning. It was nice to walk, although it does take so much longer to get through the mileage. I kept about a 16 minute + place and just enjoyed the weather and the music, with the exception of the first mile that I did with my dogs. |

| I am running again! It was really nice to get outside and run this morning. With it being New Year's Day morning the roads were fairly empty. The weather was mild and cloudy. My legs felt good and stayed that way throughout my run. I finished 9 miles in 1:33:26 and felt very good about it. This was a nice way to start out the new year. |
