Socolova's Journal, 22 January 2015

I have decided, that starting Monday, I will be training for a 10k...there is a Run to Remember honoring fallen police officers in Chicago that we have done the last few years, and always walked. Well, gosh darnit, I'm running this year! Our friend's cousin was killed in the line of duty and my brother is also a police officer and I'm just not gonna be a baby about it anymore and run my little heart out! I half-a$$ed trained for a couple of 5ks last year and sucked so I'm gonna do it right this time! Hopefully the weather cooperates cause I don't have a treadmill!

Woo hoo 10K you can do it, I concur with Nicholaix nothing replaces running outside

I HATE running inside, hence why I've never bought a treadmill...HOWEVER, I now live more north and in lake country so when it's cold, it's COLD so I just have to commit to getting used to running outside in not-so-nice weather...this will be my biggest struggle and I know it...I'm trying to get the hubster on board so we can motivate each other...

Hate to be mean but sometimes you have to suck it up and just do it, if you want to train outside get you some light gloves for your hands and one of those things that just go around your ears the do wonders when running in the cold. My rule used to be if it was 20 or colder I would hit the treadmill if not I ran outside.

Can you wake me up every morning saying SUCK IT UP!!??? Hehe :) I agree, that's what I need, I need to SUCK IT UP!

Maybe you can get an alarm clock that lets you record a message. So at X time every day it goes off saying "Wake up Socolova, Rockiesfan says time to SUCK IT UP!!" :)

Oooooh, running out side means getting to wear cute workout clothes! My vote is to run outside!

I have some Mzuno thermal plus running gloves that I adore and my closet looks like a Columbia store but basically if you dress right in layers it isn't too bad unless it drops below 20. That is my personal cut off too lol. Otherwise I try to do at least a couple miles everyday. Where can I buy that 'Suck it up!" alarm clock...clearly I need one too or I wouldnt be here lol.
