Another week down

Well, it started snowing today. It never snows here, so that's pretty cool. I was humming and hawing about going out for a ride, but seeing the snow, and realizing that I've never ridden in snow before, motivated me to get outside for a little while at least.

I bundled up as best I could, but after an hour I couldn't feel my feet at all. Actually, thats pretty much all that was cold so I guess my other layers were enough.

Friday I took off because I went for my longest swim yet (1 hr 10mins continuous) and felt pretty wrecked after that. I just had no desire to go out after that so Friday was Christmas shopping and Wii-hunting day (Monday or Tuesday if I really want it).

Hour and 10 minute run on Wednesday was good, but I was pretty sore after it surprisingly. Maybe my body isn't as used to long runs as it was a few months ago?

I've taken some of the seriousness out of my training lately since the cold weather is going to hinder me quite a bit in the coming months. I'm following a more "take it easy and enjoy youself" regimen now, while still trying to follow the exercises I have set in my schedule. I think it will keep me fit and happy until March or so when the real fun can begin.
