Ghetto from VI with RJ, Bob and Nel. Lower back still gets tight about half way through but not any other significant complaints. Good run.

On the treadmill. Mike texted me at 6 this morning and we mutually agreed the wind was too strong and COLD for us old guy's so I waited until this afternoon to hit the mill. Tomorrow could be really ugly. Taking moms all wheel drive SUV to work for my best chance to get home. Probably gonna pack an overnight bag just in case.

Future soon in law took me to the shooting range after lunch to try out his new shotgun. First time in my life shooting a gun. Shoulder hurts like he'll but it was fun. He said I was a natural and my clusters were pretty spot on with the target. Maybe I can talk Shelley in to a pistol for a birthday present?

Came home to a snow covered driveway. By the time I emptied out the pickup, put it away, and scooped the driveway, didn't feel like going far. The cold breeze sealed the deal. Interesting drive home. Couldn't keep up even at 80. No patrolman in sight. Good to be home. Hope everyone had a great Christmas weekend.

Hard packed snow and ice on most of the streets. Ran in my carbide spikes. Really work great in these conditions! Had to seek out ice on the shoulders in a couple spots to keep them from wearing too much on bare pavement.

Everyone bailed but my Matty. Me and him for a freakishly cold 10 miles. We had planned to go further, but I'm not proud to say I said no more. So cold. The wind. I've run in colder, but my legs would just not go today. This was all I could do. Done. I'm slumping, bigtime. A bit disappointing, really. Big, huge thanks to Matt for sticking with me. He's a good egg. Lessons in 'gaiter turning' were much appreciated.

Steaming hot coffee and Miller and Paine cinnamon rolls to take home to the girls made everything better.

Have a great Sunday.
  • Dan Dan Did not understand 'gaiter turning', but I did understand 'bitch wind'.

Papillion [20151227]: Quad City Half

Dressed and ready to meet JayZ, then he decided he wasn't going until 8; so I (played on my phone for a bit, and then) headed out the door. Ran all the hills of my Quad City tour route, only half a loop of the Ralston course though. Needed some snow shoes along Q street, quite a few walks were not cleared; pathetic.

Two drivers, not paying attention (oddly, both on 96th), attempted to vehicular manslaughter me, but, I'm still standing.

Looking for something to laugh at today?
CJS in ice skates, at Ralston Arena, around 1pm.
  • Linny Linny Ha! I need a good laugh. Please send pics.

Really a eye opener starting into the North wind. Sidewalks were better than expected and so was the Z. Stayed up late watching the Nebraska game last night. Great game!

Plan was to go longer; plus a GMP last few miles, but a nagging blister told me it was best to stop.

  • rudy rudy Dan that's amazing to be able to run that far on the mill. Good job!
