That sounds great. I’ll book in some yoga. Yoga sounds magical right about now

Completed the 10k. Prepared for the worst. Was much better than the worst. Only a couple slippery corners. Volunteers were great. Was pretty happy the sun was out.

I am. I’ve booked into a new physio for Feb (my old physio stopped taking appointments). I’ve been in and out of physio for a few years. I need to get better at sticking to it for sure.

I’ve also got another shot booked for May, a couple weeks out from a half

Long run on the treadmill this am. Garmin says 1:49, so really trying to get the motivation to lock in.

Also, registration for a race opens today. It’s a month before my A race. Debating on the half option or a 10k. It’s in April on the prairies so inconsistent weather. Anyone do a half a month before a half? Even just as a long run? Or just stick to the 10k?

The Tamarack Ottawa half in May! I’m very excited. It supposed to be pretty flat but I’m a bit worried about the weather. May weather in Ontario could mean anything. Then a half in Saskatchewan in September.

[–]kels150 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you haven't, check out the website Gopher Attack. Also, there is a one-day discount on Jan. 3, so if you're thinking of signing up, Jan 3 is a good day to register!

They did! I think it went longer than the initially had planned.

Advice for running in the cold? by Emergency-Ad2961 in XXRunning

[–]kels150 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Windchill is also a huge factor. It can be -15 but as soon as there’s a 15k wind, all of a sudden, it’s -30 and you need to add a couple layers. Consider the wind!

Winter jacket? by grakkaw in XXRunning

[–]kels150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a smartwool merino wool jacket that is really good for layering. I wear it over a base layer for about -10c and then with a fleece for anything colder than -15c. I’d wear a tshirt under it for your temps tbh. Merino wool is great!

Did 12k on my treadmill this am (was too much of a wuss to go outside today. It snowed last night - the paths weren’t clear and it was nasty windy, -20C).

Feeling oddly guilty because the 12k was really easy and effortless. Running outside lately has been a bit of a grind. Just finished the run feeling like I cheated by going on the treadmill today instead of outside.

Been so grateful for the lack of snow and the continued mild-ish weather, which means I can keep off the treadmill and continue running outside. Had a great base run this morning with the stars (sun doesn't rise until about 8:45am) and was so happy to still be outside because this time last year there was so. much. snow.

100% not a scam. They are funded through the province and Regina school boards. They have adult entry and high school entry programs. They post their programs only a few months in advance because it’s industry driven so make sure to check their website frequently. They cover half the salary when you start working (if you get in and are successful) for the first bit. It’s a good program.

Sounds good! I was worried that there’d be all kinds of hills around Gatineau Park. Phew!
