Gusty

I figure I got some resistance training in as well as cardio…..

Not sure what the wind gusts are measuring at, but I can say that I had a love/hate relationship with the wind during my run this morning.  LOVED it when it was at my back;  HATED it when it was in my face and just about stopped me in my tracks!

….BUT

The sun is shining, which is a huge improvement from yesterday's rainy and raw weather.  I just completed my third run for the week.  That’s kind of a big deal since I'd been struggling through a little bit of a running funk.  And most importantly, I feel good.

I’ll take it.  Even the wind.  I’ll just pretend my wind burn is really a sun-kissed tan from a faraway vacationland…..

    1. Thanks Christi, you're having great workouts too - yay both of us!

      And yes, wind is such a pain... X 2 (since I ran into it again today).

  2. The wind makes me so crabby, we're due for a good month of it through March here in CO. Oh well, keep on trucking!

    1. I know, it's hard to remember sometimes that wind does happen and March (or almost March) is prime time for it. We don't have to like it though!

  3. I hate the wind so much. I have to run 10 in the wind tomorrow - about 18 mph. It's not going to be fun. Oh well, what's a girl to do.

    1. Hey Michael, hope your 10 went well! I hit more wind today, so just tried to ignore it (yeah, ask me how well that worked :)).

      This topic falls under, "It is what it is"

  4. The wind has been SO nuts here lately. I am very ready for spring, because at least the winds will be warmer (i hope!)! Good for you for getting your run in despite the insane winds!
