I decided to sign up for what is becoming an annual Peeps 5K on New Year’s Eve. Should be interesting running in freezing temps, though can’t be much worse than the 40 degree start for the Runner’s World Marathon back in October. I did manage to tough out a 3.1 mile run today, 2 of which I was accompanied by Holly, who needed some good exercise on her four paws as well. Times and overall pacing was slightly slower than usual, but I wouldn’t have expected anything less given the gap in my training after Wine & Dine. I need to start pushing myself into a regular routine so I’m ready to go again for late February.
Figuring whatever calories I burn off during the 5K will be used up in consumption of those marshmallow Peeps!
