With the highs between 35 and 40 degrees F and lows down in the mid-20s, it's safe to say: it's cold. I admit, I much prefer the warmer NC weather (though they are getting snow today!), but I'm going to learn to run in this. Mostly through sheer willpower :-) I bought some really nice running tights tonight, so I'll test those out tomorrow morning with my first below 45 degree run of the season.
I was on the treadmill Thursday trying for a mid-to-long run; I got about 5 and a half miles before my hip flexors started killing. So I stopped. No sense in continuing at this point if it's physical pain, one that doesn't go away or get more comfortable with more running. I'm looking into a pair of compression shorts to help keep those muscles warmer/more flexible...hopefully that helps!
Chilly run tomorrow! I can't wait.
