Boise, ID 6:10 am Pace: just happy to still be alive.
The thermometer read 52 degrees, so I dressed warm up top but had on a pair of shorts. The wind wasnn't too bad starting out. It felt like those Chinook winds that would blow through the Tri Cities after a snow storm. I ran up Cloverdale and met up with Neil at the overpass. As I was going over the freeway a bunch of cars came, so I went up on the sidewalk/curb thing. Then the wind gusted. I didn't fall to my death, but I could have. We ran on the south side of the freeway for a couple of miles. I'm not really sure because I forgot to turn my Garmin back on. Then it started raining. On my way back down Cloverdale the rain was pelting my face and it kind of hurt. When I was about a mile from home this van stopped beside me and looked like it was going to turn in front of me, but it didn't. Then it finally did turn and I wondered where it was going. Then I realized that it was my wife. She heard the wind shaking the house and decided to rescue me. So I rode home and got warm.
