I've got a 16 miler on Sunday , which is currently forecast to be pretty damned cold. It's chip timed, and they are nice enough to provide a 13.1 split so I'll have an HM entry in a couple of days.

Nope, not racing much this year. I am going to try for a bout of Low Heart Rate base building for the next 3-4 months and see if that might help my runnning - though right now it hurts like hell. My legs hurr more than the day I did 14x600s at teh track last year.

Yeah, I wasn't taking any chances. I had my acceptance confirmation email in early November and my name is listed on the site. Now I just have to stay healthy for a little under 13 more weeks.

January does tend to be pretty quiet in these parts, but I did run the Frosty Four on New Year's Day. It certainly WAS frosty, but it was a nice race and I'll do it again.

I actually had entries for every month except December last year. I did run a leg of the Mill Cities Relay but it was some odd distance, so nothing to enter here.

I did a hard 3-miler on an indoor track in 18:58 a few weeks ago, if that counts. This track is 13 laps per mile, and usually inhabited by at least a few walkers at the same time. I haven't had the time to sit down and put in all my running stats yet here on the site, maybe I can do that this weekend. I'm new to RA, BTW, so I'm just getting to know everyone.

I got nothing - no races done, none on the horizon until a 4 miler in March.

And I must say that I just realized now (I'm a bit slow) that I missed racing in December, so my whole "race a month" thing that I worked so hard on last year is down the tubes.

Me too.

You said holidays....Ahhh, holidays. I miss them already. I was eating, and drinking and almost living. Now we're back into the heart of spring marathon training and 'trying' to behave.
