I went to a party at a huge house on a very steep hillside for New Years.  The streets were very narrow and dark and parking was a nightmare. We had to park at least a quarter mile from the house and walked all the way to the party at the top of the hill.
So I walked, in a dress, in heels, in my buttoned-up coat, UPHILL, in the cold, and in the dark.
Never once lost my breath. Didn't even break a sweat and talked the entire time during the hike. Wore my heels and danced in them the entire night.
When it was time to go home and I had to walk back to the car........I asked for a ride!!!! :)
Now if you are going to win any battle you have to do one thing. You have to make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up. It is always tired in the morning, noon, and night. But the body is never tired if the mind is not tired."

- George S. Patton, U.S. Army General, 1912 Olympian

I was bummed to see that your NYE pictures were not posted. I am sure you looked fabulous! Good for you and your newly found endurance. If I lived closer to you, I would recruit you to help me get my booty in gear to run also!
