Failures require the time to be studied

PM: IT WAS SNOWING TODAY!!! Im sure most of you knew that but i thought i would put that.  :) But Ruth my sweet wife ( jk ) came to run with us today.  We did the river 8.  I was prepaired for the snow but not the wind. i for got my gloves so my hands almost froze off!!! But still an awesome run!

Got to test out the new shoes. They feel great! I love them.  Today we did the arctic circle trail 5. Nice run, i was prity tired from yesterday fighting the wind, but still just a nice run. Ruth was with us for a little bit then turned around for 1000's

PM: Coach kimz and i  did the roller coaster run today in the butt cold weather.  But still a very enjoyable run.  My legs feel excelent today, not sure why but i was hammered yesterday.  But i do need to invest in a good pair of running gloves. im going to lose my fingers one of these times. Right as we finished our run it started snowing again. Not bad timing. ;)

PM: Today we decided to do our time trail on the region course at pine view for next year.  Coach, Kimz, Decker, Willy and I were the only ones racing.  We did the course for our warm up, and shortly found out that it was going to be hard with the mudd and the snow.  But still fun.  So we started out and i almost face planted into the mudd! We were all busting up laughing while trying to run fast.  We got to the big loops and coach was infront of me by like 5 m and i couldnt catch him!  I kept slipping!!! My shoes wouldnt grip to get the push to catch him.  But when we were on the pavement i was right up there.  Then on the way down to the finnish i passed coach up and won.  We had a great time. Im really excited for this course. :)

Ugh!!! I feel like crap! Last night at work i could tell that i was going to be sick today, and lo and behold . . . i am.  I know this sounds like a case of wussitus but i feel like crap. Ill be lucky if i can make it through work today without dying!!! This sucks. I was super excited to get the new shoes out and run on them.  And im reading once a runner and its making matters worse, i just plain want to RUN!  But i dont want to get super sick over the christmas break. that would suck.  So ill play it safe today and not run. But sure as heck im going to run later if i feel good!
