Morning folks!
I woke up at 2 a.m., stared at the clock until 3, realized I wasn't getting back to sleep and left for a run at 3:15.
Got in 5 miles at the track.
It's going to be a long day.
QOTD: what you favorite, easy "healthy" snack?
I've been substituting my morning work break candy bar with a string cheese or V-8 for the last month or so.
I need some new ideas.
p.s., for those with a significant other, it is valentines day. Hopefully you remembered before right now.

Morning folks,
SRD for me today, this past week was my first consistent running week in a
few. I need a few good 20+ runs before April but this damn snow is screwing
up my plans. Tomorrows forecast reads: "a little snow in the a.m., then snow".
QOTD: Sunflower seeds, I have a bottle in my desk, my car, at home. A little protein and
nice and salty. I have one drawer in my desk at work with clif bars, protein bars, tuna packets,
instant pad thai, crackers, peanut butter.

Happy Valentine's Day. SRD for me today. 18" total of snow yesterday so now I'm at the office early making sure walkways.and parking lot are safe.
We've been able to run in this weather by following the snowmobile tracks. After a few have gone through a trail, they pack it down enough for us to use. Plus it's pretty easy to hear those chain-saws-on-wheels coming from miles away, so we can jump to the side if we have to let them pass. We also have a few old logging roads that the park service keeps plowed, so that's my other option. Good luck, Couch and jonfger, finding places to get your run in.
QOTD: I try not to eat too healthy, but when I do I guess it's a banana.
“Paralysis-to-50k” training plan is underway!

I've been getting my workout shoveling snow yesterday and today. I may or may not get out on snowshoes later.
QOTD: Not sure how healthy they are, but I'll say my home made banana, nut, bran muffins.

Came to work sick yesterday and had to leave at noon. I had a 102* fever and pretty much purged every drop of fluid from my body before I crashed for about 16 hours. I feel much better today, but I don't see a run happening before Sunday afternoon, still weak.
QOTD: I guess an apple would be my favorite.

Doing a fly by the home with a quick stop of a couple hours. I'll grab my much better half and hope to be heading to the shack by noon to go embrace a real winter. Snowshoe race up there on Sunday.
AT--Did a quick skim of the recent postings and saw that you qualified for the trials in swimming. That is awesome my friend. Awesome. But yeah the '80 Olympics, jeesh!
QOTD--Pretty boring--either a simple banana or a glass of chocolate milk.

Good morning! What is this Valentine's Day stuff? It is Bella's 9th birthday today! Celebrate properly, people!
Unfortunately I won't have time to give her a real birthday run, but she will get some miles today.
QOTD: Greek yogurt, banana, string cheese, apple with peanut butter, nuts, etc.
Running is dumb.

Happy Valentine's Day, trailheads. Now go hug some dirt and tell it how much you love it.
2 people went home sick at work yesterday and I ended up having to work some extra hours, so I missed my run yesterday. Today, I have to get to go to the DMV to renew my license, and it is Valentine's Day, so I may get to have to wait until tomorrow to run in this freezing rain.
QOTD: Fruit.
flashlight and sidewalk
Happy V-Dday all,
Plan is to run (7 miles) , bike (30 mins), and abs/core (10 mins) before my fiance gets home. Dinner reservation is for 8 at Morton's Steakhouse, which is usually too rich for our blood, but we decided we would stash some money for it and eat like royalty... we (she) made the reservation during x-mas time...really looking forward to it.
QOTD: Toast with almond butter. Better bread is better.
