Day 147: Two Quick, Cold(ish) Miles

  • Kerrie
It’s not that I don’t want to run in the cold, it’s just that I know it’s not safe early in the morning. You know, when it’s dark and icy. So I waited until noon today to go, which meant I had to put T Junior in the BOB.

It wasn’t extremely cold today. Lower- to mid-30s.

I totally stole Mr. T’s fleece hat to keep my head and ears warm. I wore a very light thermal shirt under my Old Navy pink running jacket, my gray capris and gloves.

I put T Junior in a thermal onesie, jeans, a sweatshirt, his puffy jacket (with the hood on) and a hat with earflaps. Then, I put a blanket underneath him in the BOB and on top of him. I also put the rain shield on to keep any breezes off of him. Then I supplied him with Goldfish. Voila!

It’s been a while since I pushed a stroller and ran. It’s really not easy. Or fun. It only took me a couple of minutes to decide I would just run for 30 minutes. It felt good.

After yesterday’s incident, some of you have asked if I will be running the 5K on Sunday.

My poor little minivan has an ouchie.

The answer is: HELLS YA!

It’s supposed to snow! How could I possibly miss out on that? I mean, seriously, that could make for a very interesting blog post!

PS: Thank you for all of your well wishes yesterday! I felt pretty good this morning, but my back is a little sore again today. Thinking about visiting my chiropractor.

    T Junior looks so cute all bundled up. I want someone to push me in that while I can't walk and be all nice and snug.Ouchie is right on the minivan. Good thing the guy has insurance.So cool to run a race while it is snowing but PLEASE be careful. I'm so worried about everyone running in snow where it is slippery and wet.Does it snow often in the Seattle area?

    Way to get out there, Kerrie! Also, is Mr. T and the little guy coming with you on Sunday? If not, then perhaps we could go together? I'm not sure if Travis will be well enough to make the drive with me. 🙁

    Good decision to wait to run. It is so much easier to not take baby on the runs, but if it is icy and unsafe, not good. Just read about the accident…ouchee. I always wondered about people doing that…you are right it is so unsafe for that exact reason! Glad everyone is ok. Just think how great January will be for you!!
