This morning we hit the Ogden Airport pavement for our 6-mile long run. We were seriously lucky because it was snowing before our run, quit snowing long enough for us to run, and then started up again for the rest of the day. The temperature was cold but perfect for this long run. I ended up regretting wearing my track suit over my running pants and stuffed my gloves in my pockets.
Our run was good. We both said we felt good afterwards. I think my dad felt better than I did because I wasn't telling him to remember to breath as much as I usually do, but I also wasn't my usual chatty self. I just hate the beginning of a run. During the first mile or so your body, or at least my body, is so stiff and achy and my breathing seems so fast and hard. My dad said it felt like he was pulling anchors. Once my body gets past all this I finally find a rhythm and my breathing slows down and it actually feels good to run. Today was no different but I don't think I could have ran much farther than the 6 miles. My body didn't hurt or anything but it just felt tired. This past week I didn't do much training. OK OK I didn't run at all. I lost my voice at the beginning of the week and then I have a nasty cough. I did do a workout video though. Jillian Michaels kicked my butt. Does that count? My dad only ran once this past week but he seemed to be fine. I am going to blame my cough for my blah mood.
