Winter Snow

I jumped into this Ironman with both feet in nice fall weather, and without really thinking about the reality of training in my living room.  Ha!  What a joke! :)

I don't live in Southern California (still a bit jealous of the people I know who do!), and so that means that winter bike rides are out, and that an outdoor run requires a hefty coat for the cold, and a hefty set of balls (I mean guts...) for the slippery slushy roads and the drivers who don't pay attention.

Props to those people who are out in the weather, I'll stick to my living/dining room set-up.

This morning I plugged out a 45 minute run before heading to the OR.  To be honest, it put me in the perfect mindset, and two days in a row of good early morning workouts are starting to feel like a routine. :)  Tomorrow, a transition workout- my first in a while, and my first trainer/treadmill transition run, ought to be interesting!

I have read books where people did all of their training inside, have you?  How did you do it?  Were you successful?  Praying that this works, an also, for an early spring and road sweep! :)
