Oops, my bad.  I won't make the mistake twice though, I'll be able to remember two days after Pi day.

Quote from zoom-zoom on 3/9/2008 at 2:42 PM: It will be nice to have my cotton hanky along on my runs to wipe sweat from my face, too, instead of using it as a snot-rag.
Or not having to put Vaseline under my eyes to avoid the stinging from constant tears caused by the wind! How many times have I forgotten it's there and smeared my gloves through it.

I felt exactly like this running in Florida yesterday. Shorts and my RA running tank! I couldn't believe how much lighter and faster I felt not wearing 17 layers of clothing. I go back to snow in Missouri in a few days.  I just have to remember that all the winter training is going to make me a better, faster runner in the spring.  Right?

| Ran in the rain yesterday in Virginia but also short sleeves and shorts...63 degrees. Sorry for your weather. The days of winter clothes are fast ending around here. I have the long stuff on only once the last week. |

| Quote from mikeymike on 3/9/2008 at 2:36 PM: On the weather front, I can see grass (such as it is) in my back yard for the first time since November. Yuck.
We still have 3 to 4 feet of snow in our back yard, which is much better than the front yard which is still around 5 feet in the lowest spots. The snow banks are still above window height, although the snow bank right in front of the house (from roof run off) has moved about a foot farther away than it has been which is good. |

| Quote from Run To Win on 3/8/2008 at 6:37 PM: We're getting a nice little melt going! It's been in the 30s and 40s for the past couple of days, which has been great. It was supposed to rain all day, but that hasn't happened, so I got a nice late morning 15 miler in some quite wonderful weather.
Then I spent 20 minutes breaking the 3 inches of ice up that's on my driveway and hurling 20 and 30 pound blocks of it over the 6 foot snowbanks. Still plenty out there, but I was hungry after having been running for 2 hours so I came inside.
Blaine - DS, being a teenager, slept through all the non-rain weather and waited until after 3 pm to run. So he got to run 12 miles in the rain! I think he'd do the same thing over again, though - he likes his sleep. |

You KNOW it! I've told myself that for 3 months now, especially this past Saturday when my eyelids were freezing shut from running into a wind-driven snow out of the north.  - see, even the grinning smiley face is squinting at the thought of that! |

Heehee...I had ice build-up on my eyelashes this morning. It actually got so thick it was blocking my vision so I had to take my hands out of my cozy gloves and de-ice them! Darned daylight savings!
