6K Run
This afternoon I ran 6K in 50mins. I had snowed a fair bit over night so I waited until the afternoon to head out. It was fairly warm out. A nice afternoon for a run.

3.1Mile Treadmill Run
Today I ran 3.1Miles on the treadmill at a speed of 4.7 in 39mins. It is pretty windy out today with a snow storm supposedly on its way, that is why I opted for the gym on this Boxing Day. I did venture out to see to some furniture stores and Chapters today. I ordered a curio cabinet with some money my parents gave me for Christmas. I won't be in until March. The items I want to put in the cabinet have been in a box for a few months now, so a few more months are not going to hurt anything! I go a new Kobo Glo for Chirstmas from my hubby, so I made a stop at Chapters to buy a case.

4.55K Run
Today I set out to run 14K on the bike paths towards Springbank Park but ended up only making it 4.55K in 36mins. The Terry Fox Parkway ended up being covered in ice. So much so that after I turned around to abandon my chosen route I ended up slipping on ice and took a nice slide on my butt.

6.5K and 7.98K Runs
On Thursday I ran approximately 6.5K in 52mins. My Garmin did not pick up a signal for a couple blocks as I started my run downtown from work.
On Saturday I ran 7.98K in 1hour and 2mins. It has been really warm out lately, so I was able to run in a long sleeved shirt and my running vest of Saturday.
I didn't make it out for a run today as it was raining pretty hard this morning. I haven't been very motivated lately, and because of that I am disappointing myself every time I don't get out for a run. Here is my schedule for next week. Hopefully I will be able to follow it a little better then I have been doing!
Saturday: 5K Run

I started using it on Tuesday and so far so good! Check in to my Product Review page on my updates throughout the campaign.
