Getting Cold Feet...I Mean Fingers

Monday Workout: Walk 15 minutes, Run 1 minute, Walk 5 minutes
Tuesday Workout: Walk 5 minutes, Run 3 minutes, Repeat 1X, Walk 5 minutes

For people who think it doesn't get cold in Las Vegas, let me tell ya, IT DOES!!! For the past two mornings I've gotten up at 6:00 am from under my warm covers to go for my run/walk and about halfway through I realize I can't feel my fingers. Luckily you don't really need your fingers to run, but I will be glad when it starts to warm up a little. (Any of my KC friends that might be reading this, I know it's nowhere near as cold as it there. As you all have so kindly told me OVER and OVER and OVER again, but I'm warm blooded now from my 5+ years in Las Vegas and 35 degrees is COLD! lol)

So far week two is off to a good start. Today is the longest stretch of running I've done so far and surprisingly it wasn't too bad. So far I've been running around my condo complex and one loop is almost exactly 1 mile. Today was my longest distance so far, 1.59 miles ( A long way from that half marathon. Good thing I have a few more months...) and I felt really good when I was done. It is so true that exercising gives you so much more energy. I've barely even started and I feel so much better for the day after I've gotten my morning exercise in. That feeling is something I'm going to keep reminding myself of when I want to turn the alarm clock off and go back to bed.

Tomorrow is going to be an early morning. A lot to do at work and I need to be there by 7:30. Which means that alarm clock is going to go off half an hour earlier than usual. Off to bed for me!
