Week 5 Training Update

Twelve more weeks to go! Let me just say that running in the cold is getting more and more difficult and it is still only December. Don't know what I am going to do for my long runs once it starts getting for reals cold.

Luckily, running gives me the opportunity to enjoy some of the sights in this fair city even it is does require braving the nippy temperatures. Here are a few of the sights my past training runs have taken me to so far.

Marine Corps Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, 

World War II Memorial, The White House, the National Christmas Tree in the Ellipse, 

Albert Einstein Memorial and the Washington Monument

Tuesday: Ran 2.03 miles

Friday: Ran 2.77 miles

Saturday: Ran 7.29 miles (new distance record!)
