Happy New Year!
I woke up to a much drier 2013! What a relief. The radar showed some scattered storms, but nothing like we experienced yesterday. Since I considered today a do-over, I dressed in the same outfit as yesterday-basically taken out of the dryer and put on, with one addition, my Half Fanatics singlet. It was cold, so I wore it under my jacket. And I felt like superman wearing it that way. A little unzipping of my windbreaker and I was a running superhero!

Unfortunately it was too cold to expose it. It was around 40 degrees again today, damp, but with a whipping wind. At the last minute I decided to run with my warm ups on too. This turned out to be both good and bad, as they shielded me from the freezing wind, but also flapped in it and almost tripped me a few times.
There were much fewer people running today, which is surprising since the weather was so bad yesterday. I guess lots of people partied hard last night... I was in bed by 9. I should have stayed out late drinking; I would have felt better today if I did! This was another race in which I struggled. I was sore from yesterday, my feet were achy, it was cold, windy, and I was bored. At least had music with me today, but my husband walked due to injury, and the 3rd and 4th trips around the same out and back course (so really, trips 5-8) were not interesting. At least the bling made up for it!
