It's a week before my six sigma greenbelt exam, so to be honest I hadn't done much "training" since last weekend's run. I'm also still working on the fundraising link as I have duplicates from LLS. Hopefully I'll have an update before the holidays!
Yesterday's run was in my neck of the woods on Queen Anne hill. We ran the
Queen Anne Boulevard loop starting at Kerry Park. The historic scenic route is about 4.5 to 5 miles of tranquility. Several major points along the route offers lookout view points where one can see either the space needle, downtown, Magnolia, or Elliot Bay. The best part is that its a relatively flat route. Okay, maybe that's the second best part. The best part is that on clear days you can see Mt. Rainier! Unfortunately yesterday was no such day so I'vean old photo the park pasted below:

Today I struggled with running in "warm" gear. It was extremely cold and I had several long running pants from Lululemon that I never exercise in except for yoga. I failed to wear a jacket, but I did have on a Nike dri-fit shirt a new favorite in my favorite color purple:
It was my first wool v-neck and a good investment. It kept me warm but also wicked away the sweat. I originally picked this up for flag football winter season, but this may become a regular in my outdoor running attire!
