Steamboat II

Another treadmill run this morning. It was a little struggle to begin with since I am fighting cold. Nothing serious, but a factor none the less. A good 4.6 mile run at a good clip. I got a little sick of the political conversion on CNN. It should have chosen a different channel. I guess that is something I would have learned if I took Treadmill 101.

Great skiing so far. I think this is the first year that I haven't experience any soreness in my legs. I guess the running is paying off. It could be a little warmer for spring skiing, but it is nice since the snow doesn't get icy overnight meaning good conditions all day.

Got quite the surprise yesterday on the last run. A snow boarder (of course) streaked by us. Not as in streaking = fast, but streaking = butt naked. Not a stitch of clothing on him except for his snowboard boots. Believe me, even though it was low on the mountain, it was not streaking weather! His butt cheeks looked pretty pink and he was protecting his jewels from frostbite. Maybe it was his idea of male birth control since I doubt that any of his little guys survived the freezing temperatures!

A good memory to chalk up to St. Patty's Day!

Steamboat I

A good treadmill work out this morning. Since it is the DREADMILL I allow myself to go shorter time but faster. My legs feel real good after Friday's long run. The felt good yesterday too. Well, not much to report. Just getting the kids ready to go skiing. So I had better assist!
