I Hate the Cold!

I am so ready for warmer weather.

I know that I live in the South and should be counting my blessings that things aren't worse but I can't! I miss the warm weather. I miss running in the warm weather...wearing shorts...and sleeveless shirts. Sigh...

I am totally over the treadmill. That is where I have been for many of my recent runs. There is only so much people watching I can do at one time. And, while my iPod is great, it doesn't make up for the fact that I am running and running and running and going nowhere!

The good thing is that I think tomorrow morning will be the last one I have to do for at least a week or so. I am supposed to do a 6 mile tempo run. (Warm up, 4 mi at 8:45 pace, and cool down). Tempo runs are a little scary for me anyway so having to do it at the gym makes it even worse. BUT, the weather channel is promising that Sunday is going to reach 70 degrees (praise the Lord!) so I am excited to do my 7 mile long run wearing shorts and running outside!

I guess tomorrow I will just have to suck it up and get it done. And listen to the guy who is always there running next to me in the mornings make his weird grunting noises.
