We ran 6 miles today in 1:35. It was about 40°F, misting, and very foggy and damp, so it was tough to dress for. I broke out a new piece of equipment, a very light Brooks jacket that crumples and zips into a tiny ball inside its own pocket for storage. It's a piece of gear that is of limited use since it doesn't provide much worth, but it did keep me dry-ish until I took it off at about mile 4.
Because it fits into a pocket easily, it'll be a good choice for the first few miles of a cool Fall or Spring long race.
I'm feeling good as far as being ready for the Shamrock Half and I'm doing well at establishing a habit of lifting again. I can't let myself lose momentum again.
My favorite running weather.
ReplyDeleteI love the cold, and I'm stronger in the cold. Could do without the dampness. :-)
