Project 365 – Day 29

The month is coming to a close and the weather is going full circle.  January started with lots of snow and frigid temperatures. The middle of the month saw chinook conditions and melting temps with a record setting +13C last week. The end of the month is seeing tons of snow and cold temps.  I woke up this morning to –15 and 8” of snow on the ground.

The temperatures plunged from +5 to –15 last night.  This means that under all that pretty white snow is a layer of invisible ice and poor footing. It was hard to get motivated to run after enjoying a few beverages last night and going to bed late.

An indoors treadmill run was in order.  I decided easy was the plan to pamper the hamstring I tweaked yesterday. So did a 50 min 5 mile run with a 5 min warm up and a 5 min cool down for a total of 5.5 mi in 60:00 min.  Did a little foam rolling after the run, great day!
