Not true! I very rarely listen to music when I run. I enjoy listening to the events going on around me. Night runs can be spooky but in the end I like hearing the listening to the area I run in. It also gives me a chance of stillness and quiet to hear myself think. IBTNP has been running for more then 20 years of their life.

I wish. Having really small party at home. Not running tomorrow, I'm doing the Penguin Plunge in Jamestown, RI. Air temp 15, wind 20mph, Ocean around 38F. 8in snow on the ground. Should be a fun day! IBTNP will actually run and not go swimming New Years Day

staying healthy while running = many slow miles

True. I'll be running later on today once the house guests from the night have all left the building! This might be a while with how late teenagers sleep in! IBTNP will start the new year off with a brand new pair of running shoes.

Nope, but I do have some new running socks and a new running shell. IBTNP would like to run today, but isn't sure if they will get to run today.

I'm actually waiting for my friend to show up so we can go for an easy 6 miler. I have every expectation of running today. IBTNP had a wonderful run to start off the new year.

I didn't get a run in but I did get a great weight workout in this morning. IBTNP has set some great fitness goals for 2009

I think so! Big grin

IBTNP is feeling a little under the weather and chose not to do the NYD race this AM (*&^*^%$^%#$ cold), but still logged the miles as an easy run to show his/her body who is REALLY boss. Evil grin

Nope, I ran NYE in the blizzard and opted not to run in the -35* windchill ever since. And today it's blizzarding again. Roll eyes

IBTNP has thought about their goals for the year recently.

Of course! IBTNP can't wait to get their mileage back up (...thank heavens the holidays are over, health seems to be returning, and the rugrat starts back to school on MON!--woot!).

You bet your asphalt I would !! But I can't. And 2009 ain't looking good either! Cry

I reckon the next poster has never encountered, during their run, a 3-legged dog.

Awwww...No, but that would be sad, we do however sometimes meet the man who walks his dog that has 2 broken back legs, he made wheels for him, so sad, we always stop and pet him....sooooo sweet. IBTNP.....is glad to be back to work today Smile
