Yesterday was a snow day it was just to whacky weather wise to go, besides i got to go to my daughters dance recotal last night which was awesome.

The roads were a little bit on the snowy icy side today but it was a great run, seen to head of elk just west of the tree line road about 200 yds off. I t was way cool. I had good energy and the legs felt good and was just fun to run in the snow. Finished my workout today with 30 min of upper body weight training,and finished with 200 crunches.

I was able to sneak out of work at 11 am today, arrived home put on the winter running garb and headed out the door. I did the route up around the golf course today, the roads ae still snow packed and slussy in places which made for difficult trackion. The weather was actually pretty warm and the sun did peak out from behind the clouds every now and then. I seen the same two Elk that was down in the river bottoms yesterday, they are big animals. The run was a great run and it has been a great Christmas eve.

I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas, it's hard to believe it is time for another one. Should be a great day. See ya soon.

Couple of days ago my family and I were on way home from Grandma's and Grandpa's houses and it was snowing hard, my Daughter Kimberlin said look Dad Another runner as dorky as you. I said why is the runner dorky? Kimberlin said because there out running in a snow storm, that's somthing you would do, so your dorky. I said don't knock it until you try it. I love running in the snow. And todays run the roads were really snow packed and difficult to run on so it was slow going. I had to go slow and easy it was very hard to have very good footing. I did the golf course route today. About 2 feet of snow seems to be the average right now. It still fun to run and it has been a great day. After the run I did 30 min of upper weight training and finsihed with 200 crunches.

Another great night of Zzzzzz'z and it did feel good to sleep in this morn. I made my mind up last night that I will not run until the sun is up. It was still cold but after about a mile I was warmed up and it was a great run. I went out over harry's hill today and down Woodland Hill road back to home. I hav'nt been up over harry's since before the SGM. There was lots of snow at the top, my guess 3 ft plus. But a very beautiful view of the snow covered valley. I prefere the view during the summer. Will have a great weekend.
