Freeze Your Thorns Off Virtual 5K

It snowed. Not a lot, but the roads looked a little sloshy. I felt guilty completing a 5K called "freeze your thorns off" on a treadmill. Thanks to Adam at The Boring Runner for setting this up. So, after I got out of work, I bundled up and left Kevin to play video games while I got an easy 5K in (long run scheduled for tomorrow).

I started at my house and ran my usual route near home, went through a couple little neighborhood streets. It wasn't too cold (only 30 deg F), the snow had stopped, and the roads were decently plowed. I had to go a little slow to avoid slipping, and the cold was taking my breath away a little. As I was running I thought about how I ran the Disney Half last year on this saturday. It's kind of nice that with my 3.1 today, and with my 10 scheduled for tomorrow, I'll hit 13.1 this weekend. sweet!

all dressed up & ready to run

the park I run by!

Overall 3.1 in 33:47 at a 10:54 pace. Not too shabby considering the weather, and me taking it easy before my long run tomorrow. Hope everyone else's race went well too!
