This morning was warm...54o with 98% humidity. I had to take my sweatshirt off after a mile. It will cool off after today, and be colder for the week-end.
3 miles today. 9:38, 8:30, 8:15 paces. The congestion's back...it can't seem to make up it's mind if it's coming or going. I feel like my energy level is fine, so I don't mind the congestion as much.
I'll be doing some bleachers after school. I'll try for 2 miles. My holiday to do list is growing, even though I'm crossing stuff off every day.... I'm sinking in the holiday spirit!
However, I did have a very special holiday miracle yesterday. I went to the little post office in town after work, and expected to wait in line for a LONG time, since it was the busiest day of the year at the post office. And, tender mercies, there was no one else there but me! I went straight to the cashier. It was beautiful! 2 miles on the bleachers/track after school. I tried pushing and increasing my pace on the runs between bleachers. It was 22 minutes of work, but it felt like more.
