It looks like today will be what has become my normal routine. First a 20 minute warm up on the bike trainer, then a 6.3 mile run, followed by 30 minutes on the elliptical.
QOTD: I prefer 55-60 and above. I don't mind running in the colder temps and actually love the way it cleans out my lungs and sinuses, but I hate not always knowing how to dress. I also think that running in the cold keeps me healthy. It kills off the germs. If I can have access to enough water I actually prefer the higher temps.

SRD for the pooch and me. I have been running but not checking in here.
Today is my last day of full time employment. January first I am officially retired, but contracted to stay on and work two days a week or so on a flexible schedule for 6 months. After that I am done with work unless at some point I decide to do something else part time.
QOTD: Another delicate flower here... I'll run in it, but I hate the heat.

lace_up: have you run the Antelope Island 100? That was one I thought sounded somewhat interesting.
I am in 2013. It' a 20 minute drive from the house and I love that island.
An hour on the bike trainer in the basement along with 3 episodes of Big Bang Theory which made it bearable. Trotted in the back yard afterwards and felt pretty good. A few more days and I think I'll be golden. HOping to start the new year off with a run!
QOTD: I hate hot weather.

Le professeur de trail
Hi trail peeps!
Got out for 6ish miles on snowy trails this afternoon. I absolutely loved it. I am not a vet of running snow and ice ridden trails but I hope to make it a habit this winter. Last winter we had no snow so I was spoiled I spoose. But I had a blast on the downhills.
FTYC - more snow on the way tomorrow!!!
Tmotmo - you are in Red Lion? Didn't realize you were so close. I live in Enola. Check out the the website in my sig line (below) - let me know anything you can add to the site.
QOTD: I have grown to detest the hot n humid stuff.
Have a great day!
