A Sport for All Seasons

Days to Chevron Houston Marathon: 17

Planned Run: 5 miles
5.02 miles 57:52 11:32 pace
5:05am 36 degrees

My intent was to run this evening when the temperature is predicted to reach a balmy 45 degrees.  My intent was to sleep until 6am and then bounce out of bed, refreshed and ready for a day of work.  That didn't happen.  I rolled over and realized I was awake before 5 and it was cold outside.  Kansas in December cold.

Lucky for me I still have a lot of my Kansas-going-to-Colorado-to-ski clothes.  I'm not sure how silly I looked in my earmuff/headband.  It kept me warm.  And I'm really glad I still have my silk longjohns.  (Don't worry, I also threw on some sweatpants and my Wichita State sweatshirt.)

The run was comfortable enough.  I'm home.  It's done.  Time for work.

Have a good one.
