Personal:

I am married and have two wonderful kids, 14 and 10. I've been running since 1982. I never get "basic" injuries. I always get the real nasty career threatening kind, like stress fracture of the sacrum, ganglion cyst clamping down on my peroneal nerve.

Ran a really easy 6 miles tonight mostly around ISU campus. Roads are still a glazing of ice. Had to really take it easy. Temp not too bad, 18 w/ no wind at all. Looks like I may be switching gears and running a marathon December 28th in Missouri with a couple of my training partners Jeff and Aaron rather than the Louisville Hangover Classic 10 Miler on New Year's Day. This will be my first marathon since my 2006 disaster at Columbus. My goal for this one will be 3:00 while Chicago in the Fall I'd like to go sub 2:50.

Fighting the ice over here in Indy as well. I gave up and hit the treadmill. Good job getting out.

The ice storm hit Illinois tonight, I was out trying to run around the streets, not too bad, but had to run slow.

Good luck with the marathon!

Thanks JimF and will. This is the time of year when it's hard to get out!
