Fun run this morning with Steph, I did about a 1 mile warm-up, it was freezing about 24 degrees! Really stupid-you need about 3 miles to warm your body up, but I just did 1 mile so I could be done with my tempo… I did a 5 mile tempo; I didn’t even look at my watch time because I just knew it wasn’t going to be good.  I was so stiff and tight, which really reminds me how I need to focus more on hydration so I can get through these cold days coming up. I rounded it off at 10 miles, and felt good overall.  I’ve had some achy arthritis feelings especially as I’m getting old, so I’m taking lots of vitamins to deal with it: B-12, iron, folic acid… in hopes of getting through these cold weeks of winter.

Its Daniel’s VIP week at school, so I get to eat lunch with him every day this week!  I stopped at Caribou Coffee and got him a donut and chocolate covered graham cracker… try to make it a little special

We’re officially going to the Cayman Islands for spring break so any free second I have in my day I’m making mad dashes to get ready for spring break next week. The kids still have all their sports and activities, although when it gets below 40 degrees, Daniel’s baseball practice is canceled (I’m secretly hoping it will drop below 40….)
