Running to get into shape

I ran 3.18 mile at a 12.08 pace Kory and I started out togeather and every so often I would see him and Buddy the (dog)  it was 17 degrees when we started and not much wind What a great way to finish the year I have never ran on New Years Eve. Now to be thinking about the New year and some running goals something to think about. Happy New Year everyone.

Tonight Kory and I ran 2 miles in an average pace of 12.00 minute mile it was a little cold boy I can't wait for warmer weather. Back to work tomorrow it has been a nice week off.

Well my running partner and best friend Kory seemed a bit tired tonight ( lack of sleep last night )Although he all but begged me to let him go. (boo hoo)But I told him I would run without him tonight . Well I did it this is the first time ever running 3 days in a row I ran 2.13 miles at a 11.43pace I felt pretty good after I got started it was a little colder tonight my hands are still cold while typing but it was a great run.

Tonight I ran with Kory and my sister in law Kathy we ran at an 11:47 average pace I had a horrible headach today and thought that the cool night air would help a little but I still have it not as bad but will go to bed early, It seemed very dark tonight with a wind but it was warmer about 23 degrees amazing how a few numbers feel so much warmer. My girls 11 and 8 came home from school arguing about everything and I tried to get them to talk about the issues but they could not figure that one out, so I told them to go for a run and come back and meet and talk thing over amazing ,they both ran 1.3 miles and they were ready to talk and be nice to each other and they also got some good excerise in and amazingly they talked to each other with respect the rest of the evening. Hopefully I am on to something ha ah.

Today I woke up at 530am with killer migrane wasn't sure I was going to be able to run today because the med. I take wipes me out, but by noon I was feeling much better, we have had wind warnings all day ,until sometime tomorrow so running outside for me was not going to happen (Yep I chickened out), So  at about 815pm I got on the tread mill and decided to run, I ran 2 miles at 4.6 (approx 13:00 min mile) a little slower than I have been outside, but I did not want to push my luck, I then did a cool down walking mile at a 3.0 speed. 

Well what a run It was windy when we left the house we had parked the car 2 miles out with the wind behind me well that was the plan anyway well as we began running the wind had another mind of it's own so we ran with the wind everywhere it was blowing in every direction and then the snow came and it got cold real quick we got to the car and guess what I had locked the doors and the keys were now at home. So I told Kory well we better head back of as we were going back the weather was getting worse Kory said I know a short cut so we headed into a different direction and he took me through some lovely mud not knowing if we should sink or swim we made it through the mud, continued to run on home and Kory left me behind as the weather was icky He got the truck grabbed my keys and came and picked me up to go get the car, as we got almost their I looked over and noticed he had my keys not his so we had to turn around and go get his keys to unlock my doors needless to say we are still laughing at only wanting 2 miles but ended up with more. I have to say this is the worst weather I have ever ran in and I don't like it.

 Ran 3:00 miles at an average pace of 11:23  And .33 at an average pace of 13.23
