I have my nearly annual New Year's Day cold/illness, compounded by not pulling into the driveway until after 3AM (spent most of the day flying home from Vegas, then spent a couple of hours at a friend's house after our flight got in). Hope to get a few miles in tomorrow, but it's already looking like it might take me a week to catch up with that stinky rodent. This stupid snow underfoot will not make matters easier.

Yep, still sick. I think I should be up for a run tomorrow, though the weather sucks (cold and tons of snow), so I'm not feeling all that motivated to get well quickly. Tongue

Yep, better to be sick now than in May thru October, which are the nicest running months here.

It was touch and go yesterday on 1/1/2010 but the icky feeling was a little different caused by too much cider

Lucky enough I have enough cider in me to defend against any Zombie attack!

Yeah, I'm thinking zombies don't like pickled body parts much. Big grin

I find that I do well with pessimistic motivation.

So, I'm happy to say that I'm behind the pace already, too. It's going to be a great year!

Sorry to hear your year is starting off not feeling well Zoomy!

I'm going to do my best to stay ahead of that bunny this year. Last year I didn't do so great with that.

I'm on the right

I was doing okay, but a short trip later and the bunny busted past me. Time to play catch-up.

Oooh... today is the first day I've actually squeaked ahead of the bunny...

If things go well I might be ahead of the darn thing for good by the end of the week...

Getting back in shape... Just need it to be a skinnier shape...

Nice work, Kelly.

I'm switching to optimism gear myself. Hopefully nobody here minds!

I plan to pass that rabbit sometime in April, and not look back.
