Ice, Ice baby.......Today's run was a success because I did not fall. Two close calls but no fall. It was the hardest run I have had in a long time. I felt like I could not get going and when I would get going I had to slow down for ice. The one bright spot of the run was when I got to finish listening to Bon Jovi sing Livin' on a Prayer - it comes pretty dang close to making up for the ice today.

 Ave Pace: 9:13

Happy Running!

Bon Jovi and Livin on a Prayer takes me back in time!!!! You should come down to West Jordan, clear roads and safe running. It was fun to have you guys stop by last night. I'm hoping we will be done with Stockton's test by 4:00 and then I'll call you.

I am glad you did not fall!! I am glad you had some good music, that always helps liven things up!

Vanilla would be proud of you. No kidding, ice, ice, baby. Have you given the Olypic Speed Skating Oval, track a try? Have you seen the christmas song DVD with Jon Bon Jovi and Cindy Crawford. It was made in 1987 to benefit the special Olympics. Cool video. Lots of quetions, be careful out there.

Sounds like that ice is keeping you on your toes! Still a great pace for all that ice. Nice work! (Bon Jovi- ha- you are as old as me!! hee hee)
