Weekend Running Update

Like I said in an earlier post, we have had a lot of snow and ice over the past week. So I headed to the YMCA for the two runs that I did this weekend. The first one was on Friday night. I covered 6.89 miles in 60 minutes. I was happy with the distance and the pace. The second run was earlier today. I covered 3.59 miles in 30 minutes. Happy with this one too. I would have ran farther, but I guess everyone is at the gym getting their workouts in before indulging during the Super Bowl this evening.

I was happy to find a couple of the treadmills at the Y don't have the 30 minute time limit set on them. As long as I can get on one of them I won't have to use two different ones or stop after 30 minutes.

As far as my running for January, it started out good with me running almost everyday and then became a little less frequent. On Friday I signed up to run the Kentucky Derby Festival Mini Marathon, so I hope that February's runs are more consistent. I saw the extended forecast and it is calling for 40° to 50° degree temps. So I will try to do most of my runs outside.

Here is a graph showing my January running:

Time to get ready for the game.
