Pre-New Years

I went running this evening with the Nelson Roadrunners, a group of women that get together to run.  I'm not sure if I will be able to run very often since they usually meet at 6:30PM.  I'm more of a 5:30AM kind of runner.  It's nice to know they are there and if I haven't exercised during the day I can catch them in the evenings.  They meet at 6:30 Tues and Thurs in Lovingston (location varies depending on weather.)  They also do a Saturday morning run, which I will never make since we have ballet lessons every Saturday.  I took the girls with me tonight.  My oldest daughter runs faster and farther than most average adults and my youngest is happy to sit in the stroller.  Tonight the wheels on the jogging stroller were flat so I grabbed the umbrella and figured if I'm working the Couch to 5K I'd be doing a lot of walking anyway.  Lucky for me the Roadrunners weren't interested in hardcore running tonight.  Whew!  Didn't have to embarrass myself on the first night.  I stuck with the first workout from the 5K plan and it worked great!

An update on the running wear...I was able to leave the undergarments on as I wore my tights and fleecy running pants on top.  I wore my brand new running shoes I got for Christmas.  I wore my headband fleecy that covered my ears that I got for Christmas a few years ago.  I think it's the first time I wore that, which tells a lot about how much cold weather running I do.

My goal for the weekend is to do an official "weigh in" to get a starting weight and to post a picture of the "before" bod.  Have a great New Years!!
