Moon Shadow

It is so bright out there! Me, fez, the moon. One measly mile. Nice.

Flashcards on the prairie

Or "3 miles of flashcards."

Spent almost half an hour out there: slow, soft snow, mud, coyote and moose tracks. Lovely.

Creepy Chiropractor

Plans to rise early and run with my "creepy" friend failed when I awoke at 7 with a headache and feeling hungry. It was enough to talk me right out of it. So I slept til 9. Lovely. After a couple of hours at the library and lunch at the new place in town with the fam, it was time to get out under sunny blue skies for a cold run. Luckily Frogman was up for a second round of running - I hear that's how you prepare for a long training run. We explored a bit and had an adventure. Mud, thorns, trespassing and, as always, fun conversation. Loved it.
6.6 miles in an hour of moving time. About 850 ft elevation.

Scrubs


I never thought of scrubs as a running accessory, but that is what I usually wear on my late night mile. Tonight I rounded out my ensemble with "church socks", a hoodie, black hat, black gloves, and my pink laced brooks adrenaline with countless miles on them. Perfect for a breezy clear starry winter's eve.

I'm pretty sure Fez just sat where I started because he was there when I finished. Poor dog. His hips hurt.

Pants

Did the 4.5 mile loop solo at 3:15. Didn't time it. It was slow. Wore my 14 year old polypro pants under some shorts and they were off my butt and loosely hangin in the crotch of my shorts before I hit one mile. So I hopped behind some shrubs and took them off. I left them there. Should I go get them?
Nice and cold. Lots of back dullness/stiffness. I wish I had a curve. Felt good after being cooped up all day, though.

271.3

That's how many miles I put on my car today.
But it had to be done. Sad Day. A great man left.

Ran a mile with the giant in the light wet warm snow at 9:30.
