Wow.  What a difference about 30 degrees can make!  Let's compare today's run to Tuesday's run, shall we:

Temperature at the end of run:  44* - 12*

The fresh air was fabulous today!  It was near ideal running weather and it seemed that everyone had the same idea that I did - get out there and enjoy it while it lasts!  I was having a hard time motivating myself to get out the door this afternoon, but I knew that it's probably going to get cold again soon so I should soak this up.  Besides, I am so sick of the track at the rec center.  I get so bored that I stop and walk way more than I want to.  When I run outside, I run all three miles without walking. 

In the end, it was worth it.  When I was done, I felt awesome, just like I always do.  I mean, look how happy I am post-workout:

Is it warming up near you?  It's nice to know there's light at the end of this tunnel!
