No it wasn't. Our high today was 82F. That's warm.
It was high 70's here. Felt strange. At least it didn't take long to warm up.

Damaris - given that the high for the next 3 or 4 days is likely to be below freezing, 45 is warm.
Awood and T-Rod - I envy all of you who have races to look forward to this winter/spring. Coming back from injury means I have to try to restrain myself from overdoing as long as possible, which means the only race I'm signed up for isn't until September, and I only signed up for that because it was 1/2 price if I signed up on New Years Day. I'd love to be training for a race right now, but I know it's best to just slowly build the miles again. And maybe, somewhere along the way, I can find a 5 or 10k to run just for fun.

T-Rod - If you keep putting these types of miles on your shoes, you'll either lose weight or eat very well. You're on a tear. Keep up the great work.
Ginny - It sounds like you're taking a smart approach. Take it easy, and sneak in a 5K or 10K when you feel up to it.

I need to get my daily diet back in check. Like I told my sister, before the marathon I carb loaded for about a month. I wish i didn't like food so much. I don't know how skinny people stay skinny.
Bin, the doc didn't specifically say no hard running. He did however say don't stop running. I go tomorrow for results of the biopsy and will ask more questions.

Same here. I'm condemned, for my remaining days, to a life of constant vigilance over what/how much I consume. I hear you brother. I love food (and I love to cook good food). The only trick I've found is through working my ass off, gaining lean body mass (active tissue/muscle requires calories to simply "exist"), eating clean (minimize sugar, saturated fats)...and run.
