New Years day run with the Circle and James. Met at Logans house at 6:30 a.m with a chilly 26F. Did Logan's favorite "riding dirty" loop run all over the world and then some. Went to bed last night feeling pretty crappy. Woke up about 2 a.m and felt like I got ran over by a garbage truck... 97 or so times. But for some reason I just didn't want to skip the run today so I left the alarm set. Woke about an hour early to take some cold meds. Never tried that pre run before.

Anyways the run was ok. No one wanted to go hard anyways. So that helped with the pace EZ all day. About mile 16 Dave said he wanted to start the new year off right and then his shirt came off... a mile or so later Logan pulled his... and I'm a sucker for peer preasure so mine came off too with James to follow. We got some good looks from passing cars on a Jan 1st morning running shirtless back to Logans house. Being sick I'm sure it was stupid.... but I can't do much of anything right as of late so- When in Rome. Isn't that what they say?

I didn't see anything about what the temp was.. ?

Hopefully it was cold enough to shock whatever bug you've got out of your system.

Well it was around 26 F when we started before the sun came up. But by the time the shirts came off it was late in the run and out in the sun... could have been 34F or so.:)

I don't know if it shocked it or helped it grow.

Shirts off at 30 degrees, you guys are like crazy football fans (well at least you're moving to stay warm; they just sit and freeze).

Nice run to start your year, now go to bed and kick that illness!

Thanks Riley. Dave is a crazy man when it comes to shirts off.
