Today I wanted to complete 6 miles. I wasn't concerned with walking vs. running I just wanted to finish. The weather forcast for today was sketchy, but the best time appeared to be before 10AM. At 8:20 I ventured out into a light rain. Hmm, that's odd! There wasn't any rain on the radar when i just checked! I ran to the park, which is 2 miles from the house, ran around the trails for 2 miles and headed back. The trails were all mud and puddles. A few were big enough to be considered ponds. The temp was 41- it was damned freezing. I made it through and Ended @ 6.25 miles in 72 minutes. (I stopped for about 2 minutes trying to take a picture watch said 74). Not a great time, but I would run as much as I could and then walk for about 1 minute before taking off again. The last 1.5 miles were really tough, all up hill and my hamstrings were screaming at me from yesterday's WOD. Today's WOD is 3 rounds of 400 meter run, 21 KB swings and 12 pull ups. Since it's SNOWING here in ATL I'm not about to drive to the gym for this. I'm going to modify it here at the house- 2 minutes of trampoline or step ups, 21 DB swings and I'm going to try incline pull ups off the treadmill.
I took the boys to monkey joe's for a b-day party an hour after the run, and let me suggest that you NEVER do that. Xavier was a demon. EVIL. The only way I coaxed him to leave was playing in the snow. When Jon took xan to get boots Xavier FREAKED out on me-because you know the poor thing never does anything fun. He's still pouting, 20 minutes after the fact. He's such a drama queen.
