    Hell, I am just trying to force my way back into the 30-35 mpw range with all this crap. I've got 33-35 scheduled this week, here's to hoping the weather and my son allow me out the door.

      He's wearing a hat & gloves, so he should be fine.....

       

      There was a thread about this on the other place about a kid who showed up in minimal clothing to a race & needed medical attention--what was the RD's responsibility for the stupidity.

        My area is supposed to get up to 5 inches of snow Wednesday  I swear if I can't make it out of the driveway or back up into it I am going to be freaking pissed off damn it.

          I wouldn't know, but those shorts don't look like they give a lot of protection to the boys from the cold and wind.

           

          We're supposed to get more sleet and assorted frozen crap starting tomorrow morning. I am all for getting free days off work, but I would prefer not to use all 5 of them in a 2 week span, which includes 1 day off because it was cold.

            I'm married to my boss, I don't care about being away from work  What I do mind is if I can't get out of the driveway and down the road to the gym damn it, that really chaps my ass.

              We used to see this guy at our track a few years ago.  He was crazy fast and yelled at the seniors who got in his way.  Maybe that's why he runs outside now.  61 with a young kid..Hmmm???

                        I would date that 61 year old... Although he looks a bit like Mr Monk. But I liked Mr Monk.. And cute hat. I like a man with a sense of style.
