Cold Weekend

This weekend brought some very cold weather and a lot of snow for Virginia. Although many parts of Virginia got 1-2 feet of snow, we only got about about an inch of snow. But that was enough to disturb Penny. She didn't quite know what to do with the white stuff. Ryan and I had to take her outside multiple times in a thirty minute time period so she could figure out where her potty spot was. This morning when she woke up she seemed to like the snow much better. She was running and playing in it with her head to the ground eating as much snow as she could along the way.

The cold weather also brough with it a cold long run this afternoon. I had a scheduled 5 mile run today. I was quite nervous and had butterflies in my stomach prior to running. I mapped out a route that would take me 2.5 miles out and back for a total of 5 miles. It was a great run. I ran the entire way, except for having to stop at the stop light. My husband was very encouraging and it was nice to have him along for the run. I'm looking forward to my next 5 mile run next Sunday.

Total Mileage For the Week:

Thurs: 1.54 miles

Sat: 3.04 miles

Sun: 5 miles

Total: 9.58 miles

Hopefully next week with winter break I'll be able to actually follow my training schedule a bit better instead of cramming my runs in at the end of the week. I think my legs will appreciate that. And I'll also hopefully get in all 4 runs, instead of just 3.
