Indian Summer

It's supposed to be 66 degrees today.  That's great for November.  This morning it was a bit chilly, around 44 degrees, so I opted not to run first thing in the morning.  I have to dig out some gloves & invest in a good running hat.  You know that old saying about how you lose like 40%  heat through your head, or something like that.  I have plenty of knit hats, but something tells me I should go over to the running store & see if they have something for running.  If not I have some hats I can wear & there's even one w/ a hole for my ponytail.  Ha ha.

Sooner or later I'm going to have to start running some hills.  I think New Hampshire is a lot more mountainous than NJ (ya think?) and from what I've been told, the course for the Timberman 70.3 is hilly.  I don't think running on the treadmill at a 1% incline is the same as the real deal.  One day this week, maybe Wednesday when I am off, I will go into Middletown & run some of the dirt roads, they are somewhat hilly & at least will give me some gauge of how I'm doing.

OK off to enjoy this great weather!
