Miles:This week: 0.00 Month: 0.00 Year: 0.00
Total Distance
12.00

12 miles on this COLD morning!!  Seriously, it was 30 degrees, and we were all bundled up.  I HATE that!!  Bring back my warm weather!

The run was actually pretty good, had to stop for an emergency potty break at mile 9 1/2 (thank you for having a park on our route!!), and the last 2 miles got a little hard, because we were out of energy.  Stopped and walked at mile 11 and ate some granola bar, but I think it was too little too late.  Gotta plan out our eating while we run.

Other than that, I was actually surprised that it went so well.  Training hasn't been as great as I thought, but I'm glad to see that we did okay.  About 7 weeks till the marathon, so we really need to crank this up.  Hopefully, the miles will be good next week.
