Weather was better this morning, not so cold. But very foggy. Despite the run, still feel bloated and just plain fat.  I've put on a legitimate 8lbs since October. Time to get my nose to the grind!! Too much alcohol and sodium rich foods. I hate the water weight from all the salt intake!

Need to update my goals:

Run 1000 miles this year, H2C again... various small races, 1/2 marathon..

Dare I say full...???

Yes! I hit my goal for the week!! Ran four days and ran 7 today, now need to do the same next week.  It felt so great running more than 5-6, it's been forever!! Maybe 8 next Saturday.  I felt surprisingly good. Today was the best day ever too. Had a great run, then got a massage then the Seahawks won, very unexpectedly! Oh, and when I got home from my run my husband was folding the huge heap of clean laundry!  What a guy.. I hate folding laundry.

Ran with Frank before work, very windy out!  But it was warm and not raining too much.  I'll take what I can get.  I seriously, seriously cannot wait for it to be sunny and bright in the mornings!!! Spring/Summer can't come fast enough.  I miss it sooo much.  Running in the dark is scary and unmotivating.  I always feel great after I get it done but bring on the UV rays!!
