The Coldest 5K, Ever!
Adilyn's running club, Fit Girls, was scheduled to run a 5K in December, but it got canceled because of the rain. It was rescheduled for this weekend, and it was a serious cold front. Like more than a "normal" stupid Houston cold front, it was a serious arctic blast! When we got out of the car it was 20 degrees and felt like 14. Brrrr!!! I was really surprised that she wanted to do it, but she did. Who was I to say that it was too cold? The things we do for our kids!!! We had lots of clothes on, and once we got moving it wasn't too bad. At about .75 mile, Adilyn didn't want to go on. She started complaining a little bit, and I was like "Oh no, you wanted to do this. I got out of my warm bed. We are doing these 3 miles!" So, we came up with a plan. I gave her my watch, set 1 minute run/walk intervals, and we continued. We made it in about 45 minutes, and she was really proud of herself, and I was proud of her! Hopefully the next 5K will be a little nicer weather. :)
