Now hopefully this year when I do a 45 degree run I'll be able to look back and see if I was too warm or just right wearing a long sleeve shirt AND a jacket!<br /><br />I was going to do a Turkey Trot tomorrow but now I think I will just sleep in.

Sometimes I like to think about distances that are familiar to me--like when I was a kid--Hayward seemed like a LONG distance to me, and it was 10 miles away from where we lived in Fremont. I concur--you are ready for your half marathon!<br /><br />Happy happy Thanksgiving.

Especially if it's windy!<br /><br />I bet not drinking enough was what made you feel a bit less energetic - good thing you figured that out for next time! I've been drinking less as it's gotten cooler too, which is bad (I am getting more headaches because of it!). <br /><br />LOL about mooing at the cow and him moving!!!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03201592937889358953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-33489544563562767782016-11-23T06:42:45.199-06:002016-11-23T06:42:45.199-06:00Those temps were perfect for your 10 miler!
