Did some powder-puff running this morning with the dogs. Poor old Daisy has an arthritic hip, but she wouldn't stay at home. She would go halfway down the road and sit there until I came running back. The breeze was chilly, but I warmed up after the first mile. I think I have finally kicked the cold and breathing problems that I had after Las Vegas, but maybe I have lost some of my stamina. I guess I'll have to start building it back up again.
I ran 2 miles at level 6.0 on a treadmill. Originally I had planned to run closer to 4 miles, but I have been so out of breath and weak when I run lately that I guess I'm back to square one. NR and I have decided to run the Salt Lake half in April, which is good because I now have another goal to work toward. I also did 50 upper crunches, 50 lower crunches, 25 each obliques, 25 each side leg lifts, and 2 x 30 sec pencils.
