I think I am learning a thing or two about staying indoors when it is cold and rainy. I don't need to be sick, and neither does anyone else that comes around me.
I was planning a "long run" today by my injury standards, but the rain just kept on coming down.
Off to the gym I went and I ran 3 miles on the treadmill. After that I hit the legs hard, followed by some BOSU ball squats. I am definitely getting stronger as my legs aren't wobbling like they used to.
My new shoes: Nike Lunar Trainers were freakin awesome during my run. No wonder these were nearly sold out everywhere, even online until the first part of December.
I got lucky with mine by buying a pair of size 13's.
I will do a shoe review after a few miles and throughout their lifetime.
Totals:
3 miles treadmill
Leg workout: Leg press, leg curls, calf raises.
We had nasty cold rain here all weekend. No trails :(
ReplyDeleteToday we had 18mph winds and it is freaking cold out. Can you hear me crying?
Was that you I heard crying....or was that me?
ReplyDeleteThis cold rain has turned to half rain, half snow. -Very nice weather.
Sissy! :) j/k
ReplyDeleteI got in ~11 miles that night out in the cold rain under the street lights. Once I got 2 miles into it, I was fine. However, getting started really sucked. And, yeah, my shoes are still wet. hehe
Keep it up!
Luc,
ReplyDeleteI learned long ago, if it is rainy, windy and miserable out to stay in and not get sick.
Your right it though. When I do venture out in miserable weather, it is so hard to get started.
