Me at the start of my cold 13.5km run today.



Here is my run route for today....

Never ending winter

This never ending winter just doesn't want to end!?!? lol ..Wednesday we were hit with a sloppy snow storm which dumped 4-6 inch of snow depending where you live from Toronto to Barrie, and cooler then normal temps for the next few days, so I didn't run today as I don't like cold or getting my feet wet from the slush. lol.

I'll be back in the pool tomorrow ( Friday ) then if the weather is nice ( as in above freezing, suppose to be sunny tomorrow ) I will do a a run to continue with my Ultra 50 plan to make up for today's run. ;)

Started my 50 mile Ultra training

I kicked off my 50 mile ultra training with going to a nice ST Patty's day party friday where I was able to talk with Catherine about our run route. We decided to go with the out and back to Wasaga beach as it would be more challenging.

Oh and the party was fun to

Joanne and I at the party...



Sunday I went for my first test run, only did 1.5km to check my leg fitness in a tempo run, my first run in over a month! ...OK maybe two months!! lol but I made it with no problems. :)

Today I went for a little longer run of 4 and change K's, I know it's not far but this route is mostly up hill with a nice steap long hill in the middle and my plan is to build my run slow and steady up to and including May 7Th 50 miler,

Below is the map of my run today.....






Tomorrow back in the pool. :)
