When I say it's cold I mean it's chilly. I'm such a wimp when it comes to any sort of temperature change. I went over my usual excuses of why I don't want to run.
-I'm tired
-I'm cold
-I'm tired and cold
You get the idea. With all that said I pushed myself and did my day 2 run. It wasn't that hard but my hands went numb (my hands tend to do that when I get really cold...I have crappy circulation). I was proud of myself and I'm really looking forward to one day doing that 60 minute run. I've promised myself that when I reach that milestone I'm going to buy myself some new running shoes. I have ASICS gel series running shoes and they're ok. I need something to really support my ankle because I tend to roll them really easily (which is SUPER lame). I'm on the search for the ones I want and the ones that will be the best for me. I should probably go the local athletic store and have them measure me and see which shoes are best for me. However, do you ever feel like the athletic store guys have their judgey pants on when any girl besides a size 2 comes in and asked to be sized for running shoes. No thanks...I don't need your eyes sizing me up quite yet. I also decided I don't need hard core running shoes yet because I'm running such short distance. When I hit my 10K mark I'll probably NEED new shoes.
All that said things are going well and I'm feeling encouraged. I hope I continue to feel this way.
