The weather has definitely made an impact on outdoor activities the past few days. I've been out with my dogs for a mile a couple times a day, but I've been bundled up like you wouldn't believe. They don't seem to mind it, in fact, I think the colder it gets the more they enjoy it. Other than getting them out for walks the past 3 days, I really haven't had any outdoor activity. I have hit the weights pretty hard the past few days, and I'm getting ready for a 4 mile run shortly, even though it will just be a treadmill run, it's a much needed run. I've felt great after hitting the weights, and I've been pretty regular about staying with it in the new year. I definitely feel stronger, and I hope to keep strength training in my routine a bit more this year. My first race of the year, a half marathon, is just over 7 weeks away. I'm feeling pretty good about it, but realize I need to start extending my miles a bit. I haven't been quite as good at getting on the stationary bike in the evening as I told myself I would be. Something to focus on I guess.
Girls are doing great. I can't wait for the weather to break so I can feel comfortable about getting them outside to do things again. I know I have a couple months of winter left to endure, but look forward to them being outside soon enough. Until then, I'm going to try to get them to the gym and pool a little more at the YWCA. They enjoy just running around and especially enjoy the pool. In another year I will have to start thinking tee ball, and maybe some swimming!
Have a great afternoon!
