I'm here in beautiful Downtown Dallas. I have to admit that I thought there would be slim pickens on trail running, but I found this wonderful Katy Trail right in the heart of downtown. Not only is it paved, but there are two surfaces to choose from. They have concrete and a runner only spongey type surface. There was still ice on the trail from the sleet and snow storm two days ago and it was a very cold run. I was so cold that I did not want to slow down, for I feared I would freeze to death. I made great time on this run but had no cool down since I was already cold.
I seriously doubt my heart rate got up to 232 as displayed in the graph. There are some known issues with the heart rate monitor when running in cold weather. It leveled out after I warmed up and bodybugg says I burned nearly 600 calories. I think I'm starting to get in shape!
I am pretty excited about the Dream Marriage conference starting tomorrow night! We will have to figure out when and where to work in our Saturday run - 6 miles! We may be back to Katy Trail.
