SMP Long and Flat: I finally broke 2 hours! I was a bit sluggish in the beginning, and a bit cold on the open leg under the powerline, but I finally hit #17 cleanly.

Mike ran the course, also, but backwards. It was fun to see his footprints in the snow on the second half of the course. A beautiful sunny day today made it nice to be outdoors.

Long and Flat - Splits

Mike set a course for me at Weston Bend. It was just what I wanted: control picking interspersed with some long trail runs. This kept the climb manageable, while making me read the map on the move. I can see some improvement in moving through the forest, and reading the contours. I also kept up a good pace, with a reasonable average HR.

It was fun to be out in the woods by myself. The cold weather and icy trails deterred anyone without O spikes :) Also had fun tracking animal prints in the snow.

January movie-at-the-theater: The Queen

A stressful day. Last haircut with my stylist of nine years. How dare she get a life, and move out of town????? I'm in denial. I need chocolate.

Ho hum. Work and life schedule is a bit weird this week, so just trying to make it to the weekend.
