    I did my first 5k run since all of the PT, etc this Fall. My hammies were feeling a bit tight during my stretches so I didn't push it very hard. There was a beautiful (nearly) full moon hanging in the sky.
    I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

    I am happy to read others are having beautiful running times...

    Went for a tempo run this morning. A lonely one, as my running partner greeted me in her pajamas and was too tired to run. But it was beautiful, although hard. Those crisp, clear days are soon to be replaced by more rain, so I'm enjoying it while I can!

    3.44 miles today on the track doing form work and I water ran for 15 min last night. It's cold for here and I've been bundling up like crazy.

    2.5 miles on the treadmill at the work gym at lunchtime. I usually do between 3 and 3.5 miles, but the battery in my MP3 player was dead, much to my chagrin, and running on the treadmill without music is near-about impossible for me!

    Oh well, better than nothing....

    2.65 on the treadmill, nice and slow. It was my first run since the 1/2 marathon last weekend and it felt pretty good.

    I ran on the indoor track today. I don't know why I thought it would be warm in there but I did. I was wearing shorts and a sleeveless top and I was freezing. Colder than I would have been if I'd bundled up and run outdoors at -15.

    It is very boring running on a track. My garmin data looked funny on a track. Plus I guess I didn't turn it off after the run because it said I ran 8.5km instead of 3.5 and that my top speed was 68 kmh. Hee hee....

    I've left mine on in the car before too But that's GPS data from indoors, not foot pod? Is yours a ForeRunner 305? I guess they really do have a better antenna than the 301.

    3.5 for me yesterday, nice and easy, just staying loose. It put me over 50 miles for the year. How did this happen - signing up for this 5K just because I've wanted the cool T-shirt for 3 years now - turned into actually training for it Now I need a new pair of shoes, too.

    I'm lucky I'm slow, it's one sure way to keep my competitiveness from eating me up I was out riding with a couple of guys the other day, at a fairly spirited pace. One of them I hadn't really ridden with before, he says to me, "You could be really good at this." I'm like, "Dude, I've done 'could be good at this,' and it's why I didn't ride at all for 10 years." I know myself better than that now
