Long Run Sunday



As mentioned in the previous post Sunday runs are our long runs and so starts the getting up at the crack of dawn to get it over with for the day.

Our week 1 long run starts at 6k.
 
At 7:00 a.m. it was a nice Sprinter (Winter/Spring) morning but what does one wear for this time of year?  It was +3 with a 'feel like' of -1 with 15 km/h winds.  We chose to wear long sleeve shirt and capris.  It was definately a little chilly starting out with the head wind for our first 3k but once we got turned around and started the run home with the wind at our backs it was nice.  However, we believe our hands and the bottom 1/2 of our legs were frostbitten and took a little while to thaw out but we wouldn't have dressed any heavier.   



Now the thing about Sundays and running so early is we eat breakfast at 5:30/6:00 a.m. then have 'lunch' at 10:30/11 a.m and supper by 3:00 p.m.  We gotta work on that.

On Monday THESE arrived in the mail! YAY!
  

The BEST thing about running is the clothes/gadgets/accessories.  Can't wait to try these babies out on our next outside run.
