Cold and Windy but no Rain!

Posted by littlemamalopez on 1/7/2008 on littlemamalopez's blog

All my co-workers and friends called me crazy for planning to run 23 miles in the rain last Saturday. While I was looking at it as "playing in the rain", everyone else here in California was preparing for the waves of storms set to roll through the weekend. And it did rain hard this weekend, but the running gods were looking down on us and spared us the precipitation just long enough for our group to run 23 miles! Yes, it was cold and windy, but no rain. Who could ask for more? Everyone felt great and ended within 10 minutes of each other. A little soreness, but nothing out of the ordinary.

Next long run is on Feb. 3 - Surf City Marathon. I'm running it as a training run though, no racing. I'm focusing all my efforts toward the Barcelona Marathon on March 2. So excited!

Happy running :) -LML
