Probably no miles today...working instead. BUT....on the dark side...I GOT MY CHRISTMAS BONUS! It will be working 8 hour instead of 12, but only 32 hours a week...but one more day a week. Behind curtain #2...only 24 hours a week...curtain #3 is no job at all. I should know at the latest on Friday.

Endless trails
Almost sounded like you were knocked out cold all night, lying in the icy trail ..
C'mon cut me some slack, I wasn't too bright to begin with and after slamming my head I'm a
bigger knucklehead.
Maybe I need a little help with my sentence structure, where's John M. and Mandy?
Happy Birthday, couch, and thanks for the advice.
Interval training today.
QOTD: A crockpot. I really enjoy slow-cooking large pieces of tasty meat, and a crockpot is a much more convenient option than running the oven for 6+ hours.

I took a spill yesterday out on the trails, slipped and slammed my head on the ice, woke up this morning sore and stiff. I may try again later with my screw shoes, may have to take an URD.

That comma after ice would work better as a semi-colon.
Running is dumb.
Are we there, yet?
Felt really sluggish getting started, probably from all the slow going in the snow, so turned the run into a fartlek workout, one minute pickups every half mile.
QOTD: Standards on my Christmas list are food and drink, especially chocolate, cheese, and wine. I wouldn't mind a new pair of running shorts or a waist pack either.

running under the BigSky
That's awesome. I used to do that for my daughter in her younger years. Since we are talking snowshoes I also had her on some tiny plastic snowshoes when she was 3. Still kept those things for memories. QOTD--I have no needs but the same daughter already told me that she got me a BlackDiamond headlamp. She must have been raised right!

sweet- I got my grandson a little pair two seasons ago, he was a natural on them - they still work for him (probably another year)
I'm hoping he'll be asking for packs and headlamps in a few years

Have not posted here in a while. Healthy and running well so far this winter, but sort of in a holding pattern until the new year when its time officially get serious about the training for my spring goal races.
No run today. Leading a group run for the local club tomorrow evening.

Warden--that picture is priceless!
Did a quick 5 mi yesterday (Wed), today is a SRD since I'm flying home.
My big project is over at the end of Dec and now I'm being poached by a few depts in my company, a few days ago I was offered a position that would have relocated me to London, and now I have another offer for Asia, not to mention one that would keep me where I am... it's nice to be "loved".... decisions, decisions. But no matter what, there are always places to run! Stay tuned.
qotd: nothing special this year, the whole family will be together and that's all the DW and I really want.
