I Finished Week 2.....well sort of!!!!

In order to get my 4 runs in this week, I had to change my week start and end date. My weeks will now start on Monday's and end on Sundays.
My first run this week was 3 miles on Monday night. I ran outside, it was 39 degrees! Shaun ran with me that night, so I set my pace a little slower than usual, I didn't want to run alone, so I made the sacrifice to go slow. We ran it in 29:36, which isn't too bad. It was so cold that the inside of my nose froze, it made breathing a little rough. :) During our run we talked about committing to each other to keep in shape no matter how old we are.
Tuesday and Wednesday I didn't run. I had a stomach bug and felt awful.
Thursday night I ran alone. Once again it was 39 degrees. I was so cold and it was pretty late at night, so my goal was to finish the run and finish it quick! A Rocklin police officer drove by me 4 times during the run, guessing he was making sure I was safe....or maybe checking me out hahahah!!! My ponytail did look pretty good that night, so maybe :) Anyway, I finished that run in 26:15, which I think is the best outside time I have run, I was pretty happy about that.
Saturday night, I forced myself to get my long run in. Since my Saturday nights tend to be non-event filled, I thought I might as well get this run in. Shaun ran the first 3 miles with me, and picked me up in the car after I did the second 3. The first loop was completed in 28:30 and the second was done in 27:21, so I did the 6 in 55:51. It was still super cold that night, but I am getting used to it.
Today I had to adjust my week start and end date, so I could get this forth run of the week in.
My forth run was 4 miles, and I was dragging, I think I may have walked more than ran, but I got it done. We did our run at 1pm, and after running at night all week, the daylight hurt, it hurt bad.

I started typing this blog last night, but my computer freaked out on me so I was unable to finish it. Today is already week 3, but I will keep today's run a secret until the end of the week.

As a reward for getting all my runs in this week, I bought Compression Leg Sleeves!!! I am so excited and can't wait for them to get here!!! They are PINK!!!!

Yeah for me and completing week 2!!!!!!
