6 Sunny and Cold Miles

Once again, up and down the Dalton Highway. Icy cold into the wind and lovely away from the wind.  Only 12 degrees but not terribly windy.  I'm trying to follow the training program given to me by the Team In Training coach.  So I broke with my tradition of 5 miles every day and ran for 6 miles.  Funny how that extra mile seemed much harder than the first 5.  I think there was a gigantic psychological factor working there! There are long runs of 14 and 20 miles included in that training plan.  I suspect I won't be doing those outdoors in the wind.  I'm not so sure about 20 miles on the treadmill either, but I'm always open to a challenge.
