Running for Bacon: Training Day 6

So, last Friday was the 6th day of Running for More Bacon training (the second week of the Couch 2 5K).  And once more, I lucked out with the weather.  This week will be more challenging, both with the weather (it’s pouring right now, and windy) AND with Christmas on Friday.  I think it’s going to be a Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday running week…

Anyway, I did get out on Friday, and while it was chilly, I layered up so it felt pretty good.  The run was 1.5 min running, 2 min walking for 6 intervals.  With, of course, a warm-up (during which I mailed my very late Christmas cards…every year it’s the same.  Cards are ready to do early, and then don’t get done and sent until late…sigh…) and cool-down.

Here is some of the scenery from that chilly run.

  1. Beautiful photos! I find that I love running outside in the winter- even if it’s chilly! You just have to dress for it. Happy running!

    • Thanks! And indeed yes – dress for the weather. And, in my case, be really thankful I don’t have to run outside in Saskatchewan winters anymore 🙂

  2. It does look a little chilly but invigorating I would think.
    Last year when I was training for my first half marathon and blogging about it, I had a 9km run scheduled on my training spreadsheet that fell on Christmas Day. Because I was accountable to my blogging friends, I did it. But I’m obsessive like that. 😀
