Monday Morning Run

Sandy, Christy and I this morning. The route was half slippery, half clear. It was windy out of the NW, but otherwise a nice morning. It went fast this morning, which is always a relief on Monday!

A lovely Sunday run

Jill and I met up for about a 5.6 mile run. My Garmin wasn't working right so I didn't track the whole run. It was a little windy, but we got it over with at the start. The roads were a little sloppy, but the sun was nice!

Long Saturday Run

Ran 10.25 miles today. The roads were still snow covered, so I was glad I had my Yaktrax on again, otherwise it would have been a miserable run. It went fast with all the different conversations. It was a nice run, but it will be nicer (and easier) when the roads clear!

We did welcome Katie back from injury! It was great to have her a long again. And a new runner, Holly, who we hopefully did not scare away! She did great! Her longest run!

It's 4:57! SH*****!

I had my alarm set for weekend, so it didn't go off at 4:35 and I knew Christy would be waiting for me. I have never gotten ready so fast! I caught her on the route and joined her. It was a snowy run and it wasn't bad with my Yaktrax. It was one of the few times I have been able to wear then and they work so well in these conditions! The wind hadn't picked up, so it was actually a pretty enjoyable run. Plus I learned that running without brushing your teeth isn't too bad - at least for me, maybe my running partner felt differently!

It was a good way to start out my 39th year!

Wed Running Group

It had been a long time since I ran with the Wednesday night running group. It was great to join them again. I felt good during the run, but my pace was slowed by slippery conditions and needing to walk through or around snow piles at intersections. It makes you really appreciate the people who make paths through the snowplow mounds (mountains) at the ends of sidewalks and really curse those who don't shovel at all!
