Rainy and Cold

I bought a Nike light rain cover or something like that about 7 years ago and I felt hot when I ran and it seemed to cause me to sweat more so I hung it up until today. I worn an Ice Breaker top under it and it was perfect! I was dry and warm but not hot and I did not sweat! 8.2 miles and I felt great! I feel much better running since I have increased my mileage, but I have to run in the dark a lot more. 40+ miles 3/4 weeks.

Colder but nice Weather

6.2 miles today after 13.1 yesterday. It was colder but I felt good and i ran well. Over 1200 miles for the year and I just purchased the AFX ankle foot maximizer. I've read it will help stabilize and strengthen my foot/ankle and it was only $99 so I will take the chance. I'll let you know in the next 2 weeks how it it is in helping my stability.
