I found myself running the same east loop that I've run a couple of times before; it may be turning into an actual route that I can recall and repeat.  I ran in to Julie Thomas on the return route and we ran a mile or so, chatting about kids and running.

Workout with the Black Sheep, my first in at least six months.  We met at East High, then ran Straley's "Savor the Hill" workout, which basically involves running hard up a hill, backtracking on the recovery and then surging up again, making a little more progress up the road with each progressive interval.  A good re-entry workout, but I have a lot cobwebs to shake out.

I ran the East Loop again, ran into Burke on the return. 28 degrees, no wind.

Boy, it was a long night. It included, at ~3:15 am, yours truly scavenging the house to locate a binky for Luke.  Not only did I search the house, but also the car (to which I ventured in my socks (one of them of the uber-sexy Strassberg variety) . . . in the snow). After 20 minutes, finally found 2 binkies under the changing table. 

 Not surprisingly, I woke up late and ran 7 miles around the hood.

Lots of snow on the ground this morning, and lots of slop and slush on the streets. Iran with a group from Foothill Village to 11th Ave. and B, and back. The group stopped after this 10 mile slushfest. I decided to add a couple more miles because things had dried up a little bit and I was feeling pretty good. So, I ran just over 13 miles, which is my longest run in quite a while. I'll have to check my logs to find out, but it may go back as far as July, maybe June. It was worth the little extra effort. If you could run 13, you can run 15; if you can run 15, you can run 20, etc.
