Ran outside today. It's really gorgeous out, clear, sunny, and was 32 when I started and 36 when I got back. I warmed up for about a third of a mile and then ran 3 miles, with one little stop for about a minute. I am learning how to use the lap feature on my Garmin, which is no easy feat for me, but I don't want to count the part where I walked and I want to be able to find my av pace for each part of my run. Anyway, with a little help, I figured out my pace was about 9:50. I was struggling for the last half mile. But, on my new route, it's mostly flat with 2 small climbs... really small. So when I was done with the 3 miles, I was able to walk one more mile up the hill, to get home, which was a perfect cool down.
Still learning how to dress so I don't sweat to death. I profusely applied Body Glide to my rough spot, near my bunion, which really bothers me when I wear certain socks, then put a band aid over it. That was good. Off to the running store to look for thin, wool running socks.
Snow coming, so will be back to x country skiing and snow shoeing? I'm going up to Stowe on Friday, so I may not be running more than twice in the next week to ten days.
