Nope, you're not alone among the slackers at work Smile

The ice storm did get us, there are a LOT of downed trees everywhere. This ice stom was actually worse than the ice storm of '98 which we all thought was the end of the world, haha. Fortunately I only lost power for ~36 hours, a lot of people were not so lucky and were out for a week or more Shocked

Have fun on Mooselauke, that's a great mountain to hike. I had actually thought about bringing DH up there this summer sometime.

2009 Goals:
PR 5K (Ha, current 43:10)
Run a 10K
Meet Seasonal Weight Loss Challenges
Complete my first Sprint Tri

Hi everyone. Jenner I live in MA and the ice storm was incredible. My son was out of school for 3 wks (including Christmas vacation). Thankfully I only lost power for a few seconds twice. I stopped running once the time change hit because it was dark so early in the evening and was dark until about 7ish every morning. I did manage to use some fitness tapes to stay in shape. I got a treadmill for Christmas and have run almost 40 miles during January. My goal is45-50 miles per month. I am pregnant with # 3, and have been running 2.25-2.5 every day. I'm hoping to stay fit during this pregnancy and to pick up running again after I have the baby. I can't believe how much easier it is to run on the treadmill vs the road. I don't have any IT band pain, or knee pain. It's wonderful!!! Hope everyone is doing well. Robin

Wow, good for you! I don't find the treadmill easier at all. I still have all kinds of leg pain I am battling. Sad

Oh well. Keep up the good work. It feels great to exercise while you're pregnant, doesnt it?
