Wed January 23rd - Easy Run - 8.5mi

Time of day 3:30 PM
Distance 8.50 mi
Shoe Air Pegasus (Royal)
Comments River loop (8 degrees, 15mph winds). Todays run was enough to make me consider giving up running for a while. Planned on 800 m intervals. was counting on the pace to keep me warm, but quite the contrary. two miles warm-up, right into 800s with 400m active recovery. Made it through three before the frigid temps got the better of me. 400 recovery was enough time for my legs to seize up between sets, while each set was filled with mucus choking and ice puddle dodging. Sun was setting just enough to keep the angle of remaining light rays just above my head for the duration of the run. Stopped to walk quite a few times to warm up my extremities, kept the clock running the whole time.
