Overdressed

dianne and i went to the Y last night after i got home and ran together on the treadmills. it was so very pleasant. i was tempted to bail on my run yesterday, but her wanting to go run last night was perfect and we had a nice talk too.

unlike yesterday morning which was cold, windy and wet, this morning it was 24 degrees outside the back door with no wind when i headed out for a 45 minute easy run. i was over dressed with sweats over tights and a long sleeved base layer, a wind top and a big, thick hooded sweatshirt, gloves, neck gater (i don't know how to spell gaiter, or is it gater?) and watch cap. my face didn't even feel numb untill i was almost home. it was a nice run.

happy running!

At least you built up a good sweat despite the cold temps, right?

It's gaiter, but neck 'gator would have been funny.

When it gets cold like that, I go out in the normal running gear (maybe plus an extra short-sleeved shirt), but a hat would really be good.
