A Heat wave in February?
So it is the 2nd week of February and we have had unusual weather. The last 4 days have been over 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Today its beautiful but 40mph winds, the news said if it were snowing we would have white out blizzards. So unlike some fellow runners still toughing out the cold, I have had the advantage to run in shorts, and Capri pants. The most perfect running weather imaginable. Why in February though? Is this a sign of what’s ahead and global warming. Or is this a tease and our next snow fall will be feet instead of inches and will winter last until May. Hey its Nebraska I remember track seasons in which our first few meets have been cancelled from snow still being on the track or to cold to compete. Well I will say these beautiful days have been nice for running, a little wet still with all of the melting but perfect none the less. I don’t know what I will do when its cold again, probably back indoors to the treadmill and pool for cross training.
I have yet to decide what races to do and what exactly I want to focus on doing, triathlons, half marathons or another full marathon. I am leaning towards a half, and triathlon but we will see.
