My lower back has been bothering me and all the snow shoveling I did over the weekend did not help it.  When I jumped on the TM this morning it was not a good feeling.  I decided to just do an hour of weights and then did 2 easy miles.

We left early this morning to go skiing with the family.  It was cold but bearable when the sun was shining.  We had a great day!!!

It was 14 below this morning.  BRRR.  I did the Body Pump class for 1 hour then ran 10.00 on the TM.  I can feel the start of a cold....not good.
