It’s snowing. AGAIN! This is not what I signed up for. I want my 45 degrees + rain! At least we are almost back to the time when it is light after work again.
I did make it to the gym this morning for a 4 mile tempo run.
Mile 1 (warm-up): 11:06
Mile 2: 10:20
Mile 3: 10:00
Mile 4: 10:31
Overall – 42:07 (10:31 average)….I am definitely getting faster. Although I think I was supposed to do 5 miles this morning. Oh well.
I feel like I’m not having a productive morning despite my giant latte I had while waiting for the streetcar (in the SNOW! with only one glove!) post-gym.
But – only 8 more days of work before my week-long vacation.

Great Run!!!!!!!!!! I think my average was slighty slower but it definitely felt good to get some of those faster intervals in there. We’ll get faster every week!

It’s just raining at my house but I had to postpone my Beaverton swim session. Stupid Highway 26!!

February 10, 2009 - 11:59 am ·Good job!! I want a latte. Yummy
gazelle
February 10, 2009 - 12:56 pm ·IT was delicious. I got it at Boyd’s and it seemed yummier than the place I usually get my lattes (once a week).

Makes me want to sit at home in front of a fire. maybe with hot chocolate.
gazelle
February 10, 2009 - 12:56 pm ·That sounds nice! I just hope that they don’t stop public transportation to my work (they do sometimes when it’s extra snowy)…..

February 10, 2009 - 2:40 pm ·what? more snow? it’s 70 deg here today. we’re supposed to get more snow than you too. how odd!
gazelle
February 10, 2009 - 3:01 pm ·my first instinct was to say “BITE ME” but then I thought that might be rude. So I won’t say that. 😛

February 10, 2009 - 3:28 pm ·Ooooohhhhhh…..a latte sounds yummy right now!!! It’s pouring rain here…tomorrow should be nicer, my Mom said she’s “Putting me in a chair outside for some sunshine”….maybe it would have sounded nicer if she didn’t say “putting” me out there! LOL!
gazelle
February 10, 2009 - 3:46 pm ·When it gets warm, sometimes I put my plants out on the porch 🙂
I hope you get some sun tomorrow!

February 10, 2009 - 9:44 pm ·yay for vacations in 15 days – i’m having one that week, too! actually, i’m coming over to oregon city to visit my grandparents that week, so you’d better get the weather to shape up before then!! i’m not crazy about the idea of rain the whole week, but i’ll take that before the snow. when it snows over there, everything just turns into a big, fat mess. SO not in the mood!
