... More frigid weather.

It shouldn't be below zero in March, even in Minnesota.

I'll elaborate later so this doesn't get crazy long, but what is March bringing your way? It can be weather or training or anything else you want to share.

And, go!

So, tomorrow I need to run in the neighborhood of 14-16 miles. I totally skipped my long run last week because of weather/work/schedule craziness. If I want to have a chance to meet my race goals I really need to get a decent long run done. (Obviously).

Weather tomorrow? Low of -21, High of -4 and 10+ mph wind. Meaning it likely won't be above 20 below windchill all day. Sunday looks the same.

I'm thinking I'll try to run as long as possible outside, then finish on the treadmill. Unless anyone has any really awesome audio books or movie to suggest for about 2.5 hours on the TM??

I know it won't be as bad as I'm making it out to be, but I just want some warmth back! I am honestly enjoying training, but the winter is getting so old.

I'm meeting with my sportsmed doctor on Monday so I'm hoping March will bring running back to me:)

I grew up in FL, so I still feel like March should be the beginning of spring. I remember going to the beach on Spring Break. I still get hopeful when March rolls around. But March is still winter around here, and this year it's REALLY winter. We have two chances of snow next week.

It's projected to be a balmy 37 degrees (compared to -1 on my run this morning).

In March I'm running 2 races- an 8K and a 15K....I'm so excited to be progressing back into running.

A raise and (hopefully) a bonus from work- so an Athleta shopping trip for me to our new local store.

-Renters for the townhouse (fingers crossed!!).
-My longest runs ever. To be followed by even longer ones in April.

It's for food production animals and I can talk about it but not on a public forum

Fair enough. I hope everything gets approved/accepted for you!

Ha! No, not yet, the trip to Svalbard is end of May. I've just been crazy busy with work and other commitments. I have occasionally been reading GBCN but it's only now that I'm in utter insomniatic jet lag that I've had a chance to post.
