OK so today is a dual post due to me being pretty wiped last night after coming home from my run.

Last nights run was great! It was freezing cold snow was on the ground. Though I had myself nice and bundled up. I took it very very slow. I wanted to just be out there for a while. I only ended up hitting about 3 miles but I forced myself to be out there even in the snow!
Todays run... well.. that was a bit different. Today was FREEZING. My schedule had me for Cross Training so I did a little more than my normal morning cardio work out. I lifted a little heavier, nothing huge. I also went for a run. WOW was it cold. I've noticed lately how intense my sense of smell has got to cigarette smoke. I can smell it as people are driving by. I mean to each their own but wow, coming from a guy who smoked over a pack a day for a good long time.. "smoke STINKS!"

I am still running the path that I have here for the next 2 weeks at least! So if anyone is in the area please feel free to say hey or stop by or join me on a run.

Best,
Vinny

Day 1

Ok well today was the first day of my OFFICIAL training! It was actually the warmest day we've had in a long time.  My scheduled training run was for 30 mins. Though the lap that I take around my area right now is a 2 mile run so I just figured I'd do 2 laps tonight. It was a little over the 30 minutes. Though it was nice, it was great to finally not hit a corner and worry about the ice, but feel the puddles. I am really looking forward to our second weekend run at Sunken Meadow. I think I might have to stay there for a while longer and run around for old time sake!

SO if anyone is in this area that's training or would like to just come along one day. Feel free to drop an email or something the day before and I'll let you know what time I plan on heading out!
