Cold is for the birds....

After braving the cold and ice the last two days and running, I have been on a mission to find warmth for running, lest I forgoe it altogether, and find myself starting at square one come spring. (my running partner actually bought me snow tires!!... little spikey things for my running shoes to ensure I keep it up thru winter...wish me luck!)

I bought thermals, warm socks, new gloves, an ear warmer, and my friend got me a gaitor that really helps for breathing!

I also recruited a new running partner from bootcamp, so when my usual friend cant come, I have another person! Plus, it makes me feel pretty awesome to run with a beginner, who thinks I make running look easy.

I find nothing easy about running!

How awesome! I've been away from blogging for a while (thanks to life... grr... real life can suck sometimes), and didn't realize that you picked up running! How long have you been at it? Unrelated (semi related?) question... are you doing any yoga to balance out the running? :) Hope all is well, my Akron friend!

I've been running since this past summer. I've been indoor jogging for a year or so, but only since summer took it outdoors, and feel official! I even did the akron marathon in a relay, next year im doing the half so i am determined to keep at it thru the winter!!! I have done yoga off and on but only a class here or there. i really enjoy it but i havnt found a place i really like cus i never go back!
