Snow Day

I have never been a a fan of snow...and while the weather today was warmer than I expected the snow really had an impact on my 27K run, which turned out to be 15K that was really hard due to the deepness of the snow and how slippy it was. I keep losing my footing, my breathing was off and my pace was slower than normal.

I can run a 1/2 marathon in 2:30 and today it took my 2:30 to run 15K - what is up with that?

I am at home now watching some awful moving about Nazi's who have gargoyles that have come to life and they are using them to fight the Americans in WWII...my feet are defrosting and my laundry has just beeped...I can't be bothered to go downstairs just yet to get it as I am tired.

IFM (Ironman For Mortals) training is in its 7th week and I am still liking it but I do get tired more often. My typical week looks like this:

Monday - Swim or Run (5K) - but easy
Tuesday - Run 5K and do a Strength Class
Wednesday - Run 5K and Swim Class
Thursday - Brick Session (Bike for 1 hour and run for 40 minutes)
Friday - Run 5K
Saturday - Spin Class and then if I don't have IFM class that day a swim
Sunday - LSD with the goofies

Weight lost to-date 4 pounds but I go according to Melissa's scale today 8 pounds (can't be that lucky).

Merry Christmas
