Geeze! The heck with this. Talk about challenging the motivation. Snow on the first day of May, and worse yet, freezing. I might sound like I am complaining, and that is because I am! 80 degrees Wednesday, 40 Thursday? I came from where it was 75 every day! I do like the weather and the challenge of training all winter here, and the ability to snowshoe, 4x4, snowboard, and the such, but May should be a barrier. Heck, March should be the end of it all. I was amazed to see that College Triathlon Nationals has already come and gone, and people can't even swim outside here yet. I never thought about that before! At least you can run all year long, and I do love the snow. I just don't love it after an 80 degree day:)
This week has been pretty light, and that has been nice. 34:30 10k earlier in the week at a very reasonable effort! That is a great sign. Hopefully at sea level, I can push under 30min. I will have a big weekend and get some distance in the legs. One hard hill day and then probably one long easy hill day. Adrienne got through a good quarter mile workout at 7min pace! That was a good start to the speed, and she has a lot of potential to really run well this year.
So, enough complaining, I guess... I just have to hope for warmer weather, and no more freezes:) I'm too skinny for this weather.
