Snow, Snow, Snow

Hello!

I did my 6 mile long run as planned today. I still don't have long running pants but I was fine. The temperature was about 0 F, yes that's a zero! It's crazy how quickly I have acclimated to the cold, and I actually love it. If it was 50 F back in Cali I would be cold, but not anymore!

I did four laps around a 1.5 mile loop by my cousin's house, and finished it in about 1 hour 15 minutes. It was supposed to be a 12:02 mile pace, but there was lots of snow and some hills and I think that slowed me down some.

It was such a beautiful day today. The sun was shining, the snow was glistening, and the air was cool. The sun starts to set pretty early here now, like between 3 and 4 the sun is definitely going down.  I haven't felt depressed at all about winter, though and I hope it stays that way.

I think I'm losing more weight and I'm so excited! I tried on a pair of my jeans that was uncomfortably tight before, and now they fit really well. If I lose another 2 lbs I will be below my lowest weight in at least the last 2 years, if not longer. I am so excited that I am actually going to do this, and it won't be like the other times I tried to lose weight then gave up. This time is different.....I can just tell.

I hope you are having a great weekend!
