Christmas Cookies - Du-December Challenge (Page 10)

Atlantia - 2009-12-15 5:20 PM Perfect running weather for sure. Once I'm acclimated I like anything between 20-40* F.

kimk - 2009-12-16 5:37 AM Morning cookies! I didn't get my run in yesterday...tummy not feeling well at all. I had to leave during Vive on Monday to get sick then came back and finished teaching the class, taught 2 more water classes..on deck. Went right to bed when I got home. Felt better yesterday until vive, made it through the class but wasn't up for the run. I will try to get it in today, I teach 3 water and a Yoga. We shall see, it feels fine now.
Have a great day all!

Atlantia - 2009-12-16 4:03 PM Take good care of yourself. I'm still sick as a dog. I made Christmas Cookies last night and didn't eat a single one. I have an open box of chocolate at home and haven't eaten any for days. Obviously I'm not feeling well. Stupid nasty cold.

kimk - 2009-12-16 3:44 PM As for me I feel sooooo much better! I went into work early and got my run in on the new TM. Taught all 4 classes without getting sick and worked them all very hard! It was a blast!!

X2 on that.  Swelling does not sound good.  Ice and aspirin and keep it elevated.

deehtz - 2009-12-16 7:58 PM Got my run in today. 

It was not a good one.  It was my first time on the treadmill at the Y.  The treadmill is okay...  a little boring but I expected that.  However, the room is a comfortable temperature if you are NOT running.  So it was WAAAAY too warm after I got going and there are no fans, so there is no air movement.    YUCK!! 

However, I am current on my workouts, so that is good.

Coooooooooookies!  I need to eat less of em!

 

Got a nice swim in today @ the gym pool! Hot tub was NOT workout though. Booooooooo.

 

I have a planned 9 mile run Friday on a lovely trail near my house.  I take my dog and his backpack with me. He needs all the exercise he can get, plus I run sloooooooooooow.

 

Got some free running shoes tonight from a friend for my birthday!  Will try those out tomorrow   Pair of Brooks.  Niiiiiiiice.

 

I hope everyone that feels good stays good and to anyone that doesn't, slow down and get better. Don't push yourself.

kimk - 2009-12-17 5:34 AM Morning Cookies! I will get a trainer ride in today and maybe another run....I only teach one class today but have a very messy house that needs tending! Why oh Why can't it just stay clean!

aspeelma - 2009-12-17 3:14 AM Good morning Cookies!!!

Got 6.2 miles in last night, and a swim. It was 33 when I started running, right before sunset. It was 30 when I got home in the dark. I don't know how you cold weather runners do it, my midsection was freezing. My legs were warm, my head and hands were toasty, but my tummy and back were freezing, I think that's where I sweat the most. I usually do a cool down, but it was just too cold last night.

Short run tonight, maybe 4 miles or so, then hopefully another 6 tomorrow.

Have a great day Cookies!!!

Atlantia - 2009-12-18 5:18 AMI started taking a different kind of cold medicine, so I don't feel quite so bad, however I took the day off of biking. I was becoming really crabby so I slept in this morning. Maybe I'll make it up later in the month, but for now I'm just concentrating on feeling better.So here's a pickle: I've gained like 40 pounds since the last time I was running, so I've had to buy a lot of new running stuff. Which I don't want to spend a ton of money on, because I intend to not be this heavy for long. However, it is starting to get really cold outside in the mornings. Can anybody recommend a nice lightweight water/wind-resistant running jacket that DOESN'T cost a bundle?
