yup, it's been 6:15 Monday through Thursday, although I can't run on
Tuesdays for the rest of the quarter. There hasn't been any time set
for Friday or weekends. I would say that running inside isn't that
boring but I think that isn't the commonly uphelp opinion, so I think
I'm a little strange like that, at least the indoor tracks are a bit
more interesting than treadmills.
Have you run in winter before? I can't think of too much specific
advice, aside from dressing appropriately, hat and gloves are a good
idea. I actually have glove liners that I use by themselves for races,
since they provide some wind protection, but aren't bulky and won't
end up being too warm by the end.
I sent another message specifically about the upcoming race last
night, let use know if you're planning on going :)
