A week ago I ran in 64º. Today it was below freezing with 20mph winds making it feel like it was in the teens. 7 miles with 4 at HM effort, which turned out to be a tad faster than expected, maybe because of the cold.

Hi! I had the same weather bullshit as Fred this morning. Just 5 easy miles for me though. Speaking of bullshit weather, the HM I've got Saturday which I had been looking forward to has a weather forecast that includes 3" of rain with 15-20 mph winds. jhfc

Same weather BS here. Ideal morning for a fire drill.
Luckily my HM is Sunday, so the rain should be done. And since Baboon is also doing one, I have no chance of getting the race point.

I'm glad someone had our windy weather for once. Wind has lowered here to around 10mph. I have 6 later.

Well Whiskers said that last time but then michaelmarty destroyed both of us.
Woke up and realized the Padres game was still on so watched the last 2 innings. And sounds like Ohtani has a gambling problem.
It's high 70F here of course. Went for a 2 mi walk yesterday and coughed my way around the park. I'll probably wait until tomorrow to try for a jog.
Sounds like his may count as a swim and not a run!
I'm screwed for my marathon because even assuming no one is running a marathon the weekend of the 21st, the Boston marathon is that Monday so same week as mine, waaahhhh. LOL.
I ended up running at 5:30 PM yesterday, which is better than a 9 PM post-dinner run like I did the day before. I was going for 1-mile tempo intervals, shooting for 5 and maybe 6 if I was feeling it. Paces were meh, but it was kind of hilly & windy so hard to really tell. I was at least glad to get a hard effort in, because I didn’t know how this week would shake out with my travel schedule. I also lost count of my intervals, which is pretty bad with such a small number, but the good news is I amazingly undercounted—I thought I was on #4 till checking total mileage and realizing I must be on #5. Usually mis-counting goes the other direction. I did the 6, and ended up with 10+ total.
This morning I knew I’d have to get something in early, since I’m flying out today and don’t expect to be motivated to run after I get home around 7 PM. I set my alarm for 5:30 AM (which is 3:30 my time), hoping to get about 6 miles. I hit the snooze I swear just once but then it was suddenly 6:30. Still managed to just barely squeeze in 3 miles on the treadmill.

We went out for our run at 2pm. Feels like 30F (35F), sunny, low breeze. It was awesome.
