The Running Update – 1.30.17-2.5.17


ru

Last Week:

  • Monday – It was a cold one. But got my run done before grocery shopping and meeting my bff for a walk around the mall.

Feels like 15 degrees brrr

  • Tuesday – A rest day with snow predicted for the evening. Played tennis as usual on Tuesday.
  • Wednesday – A busy week prompted me to do two loops of the campus. Thanks to Alyssa keeping me sane.

Same shirt for the 2nd week in a row

  • Thursday– I was planning a rest day due to a needed hair appointment after work. But I was able to squeeze in a quick one during lunch.

Clouds, sun, and snow all during this short run

  • Friday – Rest day today except for a walk at lunch (after the pizza they fed us.). Did some cooking for tomorrow’s party and then played mah jongg in the evening.
  • Saturday – I ran the Polar Cap Race in Lake George. It was very cold 4 miles and the course was hilly but I had a great race and love racing with a friend.

surprise. surprise. won my age group and had a PR!!!!

After the post-race refreshments and awards, I decided to add some more miles so I could loosely call it a “long” run.  I ran around Lake George and then Bolton Landing.  It was even colder than during the race but loved the scenery.

I then had to rush home to go to a very fun Chinese New Years party.

  • Sunday –  A much needed rest day. Did my Saturday weekend home stuff and spent the afternoon knitting with friends (and eating).

  1. Lady Gaga was AMAZING during the half time show. AMAZING. Look at you with a PR and age group award at the Polar Cap Race. Congrats! I really having major FOMO now with the racing buddies. It would be nice to run and chat for a change. Thanks for linking, Darlene!

  2. You went to a Chinese new year party I bet that was cool. Isn’t it the year of the rooster? I don’t even know what that really means…
    I didn’t see the super bowl not even the first commercial nor Lady Gaga’s performance. That was a pretty cool picture of you sitting on the ice sculpture too!
