      Sounds like it was a great run! And extra bonus points for not slipping!

      This has been the craziest winter here where I am -- I've only worn my spiky winter shoes once and it wasn't worth it because it was only soft, unpacked snow. With "tire chains" or my spiky shoes you NEED the ice! LOL

    alright 6.01 mi 00:55 09:07 pace

    I'm so not impressed with my pace considering how much effort this run took. I felt so heavy today. I guess I was due to have a not so great run since I can't remember the last time I had one. 4... read more

      I run with pepper spray all the time! If not for crazy people, there could be wild dogs, or out in the country, mountain lions. Be safe out there!!!

    Needed to be an easy-paced run, but I was short on time and the run the day before was supposed to be tempo-paced but wasn't--so I split the difference. Beautiful day for January out on the path. ... read more

  13. RUN
    good Memorial Park to Sioux Park o&b 5.01 mi 00:46 09:11 pace

    Should've been yesterday's run, but it was too cold. I would have liked to have run faster, but it was dark, cold, windy and now I'm just glad to have finished it. 29F/10F with windchill.

    Cab companies were too busy to even answer their phones so we just decided to walk home. It was a nice, pleasant walk. Good way to start the new year.
