Ran Overstreet loop (3 miles) counterclockwise to Ravine trail - for the nearly 2 mile Ravine trail I did one minute on one minute off.  Felt pretty strong after no activity yesterday... eating nothing by pie for 2 days caught up with me and I just couldn't hit the trails yesterday.

Bit of a chilly run this morning around the neighborhood - yes, 35 is chilly for me.  Will need all my will power and warm gear for the next few mornings as well - sub 30!  I will think of all you northerners who scoff at such balmy temps while pounding out the miles.

Too cold for my testes tastes this morning, so did 45 minutes of plyometrics in the house - ouch - been a while.

Ran 2.5 this evening (when it was a toasty 44 degrees) followed by 4 100M striders and then another half mile.

I'm thinking something like today will be my routine for the winter.  My trouble last year at this time was that I tried to keep doing 5-6 mile runs but lost motivation due to my unhealthy distaste for cold weather.  Short fast stuff is best for me, combined with working out inside in the morning.

Targeting the 400 meter indoor old fogies' race at the Jimmy Carnes Meet in Gainesville at the end of January... its good to have a goal.

Did a chest and back workout this morning for the first time in a long time - will have to ease into that one a little slower - pull ups were not at all impressive.

Ran my usual 4 miler this evening.  Gonna be a late night working on slideshow for the XC banquet on Sunday.
