Running in 30 degree weather, while it's snowing, for six miles is way easier than running three miles on a treadmill in a heated gym.

It was awesome, and while I'm a little achy, it was nice to run that distance outside again. I think I might have exacerbated a cold bug - I do not want to catch this thing everyone seems to have but I can feel it coming on - but it was well worth it. I've since pumped cold medicine, vitamin c and enchinacea tea and I'm off to bed. Tomorrow is a rest day on my schedule, and I intend to use it. I want to make it to Wednesday so I can break out my new bike and ride to work!

My training schedule for the week is as follows:

Tuesday - Thursday: 3-mile runs, each day, weight lifting prior to each run. Upper and lower body.
Friday: Cardio kickboxing (optional)
Saturday: Spinning, weights
Sunday: 6-mile run

Of course when I make plans like these for myself I end up setting sick and not able to stick with any of them. So sad, really.

Anyway, that's the agenda. I'm off to bed.
