Regular run [Dec 07 2009]

Its snowed over the weekend in Virginia. Though there was no snow here in Delaware, its very very cold. 40deg F. I donned the base layer, ear muffs, my cap and a tee. I decided I will curb my 'enthusiasm', come what may and try a negative split. There was no way of calculating precisely my negative split, but I am pretty sure I did one! Breathing was a wee bit difficult in the cold, but not impossible as such. Infact, I did the 4miles in 35 min! yaayy!! The left foot was aching near the plantar fascia, but I didnt let that bother me too much and the pain just vanished at about mile 1.5. The ear muffs are a boon! I have to get ones that snuggle better. I will not be able to run till Friday atleast thanks to all these parties at work. But I think I am pretty set for Sunday's Jingle All the Way 10K in DC this coming Sunday. A reminder: target time - 55min.

Meals: Cereal & coffee for breakfast + Quiznos regular turkey sub & iced tea + black eyed peas रस्सा भाजी & beer + usual quantity of water.
