4.79K Run and Really Chilly 10K Road Race

Yesterday I ran 4.79K in 36mins in preparation for the Really Chilly 10K Road Race today. 

I ran the Really Chilly 10K Road Race in 1:10:56.  3 seconds faster then last year.  I wish it was a little faster but over all it was a good race.  The race lived up to it's name today as it was -16 degrees with the wind chill when the race started!  Like last year it was a fast race.  I felt really good during the race and finished strong, passing 3 people in the last 3km.

7.87K Run

Last night I ran 7.87K in 1hour and 7mins with the running group.  It was a rainy, snowy run.  I was slushed by passing cars twice.
This is the route we took:

east King
north Ontario
east Dundas
south Ashland
west King
south Eleanor
east York
south Kernohan
west Florence
north Rectory
west King to Club

I also received these flowers from my lovely hubby.

Today I bought new running shoes.  My ankle has been bothering me a little bit, so I think it is time.  Saucony no longer makes the Echelon 2 so I bought the Echelon 3.

While I was at the store, I also picked up my race packet for Sunday's Really Chilly 10K Road Race!
I love the race shirt! Pink!

The course had a monster hill at the end.  Here is a picture of the down portion before you run up the other side.
