Another late night, another busy day. I decided to do my tempo run later in the day, just before dinner time. By the time I got out the door it was -35 C. I was really surprised how fast I ran considering I was bundled up, it was really cold and the roads were snow packed and icy. I kept the heart rate under 142 bpm and was able to average a 7:26 pace. It felt good. When I got home I jumped in the shower and I didn't let me body thaw out before and sure enough the hot water started to mix with the cold skin and I got burnt from the cold. The worst part was my butt. The sweats I'm wearing have a wind breaker in the front and down the legs, but the back side is regular fabric with very little protection. I'm glad I've been working out, all I've been doing is eating and drinking. Tonight is our traditional Christmas Eve Chinese food that Alice and I buy everyone. We had a really late night hanging out with my brother Bob and the Sohor clan. I even came up with a great way to take my beers with me. I attached the case to my belt. It's amazing how great the idea seemed at the time.
Tempo Run - 45:00 minutes / 6.05 / 7:26 pace
