Alan, that's miserable. Better to be injured when the weather is crummy. 60...ahhh...that sounds heavenly! Let's trade locales...you come here and stay warm indoors whilst looking at the pretty snow and I'll go there and run. Then when you are healed we can trade back and the weather here might be better.

Let's see, I think it is supposed to get down to 30* or so.

Imminent Catastrophe
And here I sit on the opposite side of the fence and have temps in the 60's and can't run because of a strained muscle in my back. I try to run about every 3-4 days when I feel better and then get sidelined again.

Burn out city!! I'm in the boat with you. I think this is a sign that next year at this time we need to take a week-long vacation somewhere warm, tropical and sunny. I'm calendaring it right now!!
WOW...is that you in the pic? You're look like you are 20 years old???
One day at a time
I've got a fever...
Ha! I was determined to run a mile for every 5 I've been alive and goldurnit I did! It kinda sucked and the windchill was ~5º. No bare asphalt anywhere and when I returned home my hat had frozen to my hair around the nape of my neck, but I did my slow 7+ miles and Old Man Winter and that biotch Mother Nature didn't stop me!
On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.
