| Had stomach flu complete with puking yesterday and I was still recovering today, so didn't run. Should be back on my feet tomorrow. I got a plush bathrobe as a Christmas present, and I've worn it every day, almost all day since. I've only left the house twice since Christmas morning. Lazy. Combine the bathrobe with my current fu manchu facial hair, and I look downright white trashy, ala Ben Stiller in Dodgeball.

| PM- Barry suggested an end-of-year Paris Mtn run and 6 of us showed up- big crew- including Aaron and Lynn who landed at the airport just minutes before. Nice temps, lots of fun talking, nice run. 11 miles. Pushed me over 3500 miles for the year, my lowest mileage in 3 years. Which I'm ok with. Not really sure plans for next year- I have a 15 miler in Jan and Mt Mitchell Challenge 40 miler in Feb, and nothing else. Barkley and Western States lotteries didn't work out, so I'll probably try Massanutten to see if I can get it.
Happy New Year, everyone.

| PM late afternoon 4 miles. Wasn't much but I didn't feel great. I was planning on a solid week or more off after LM. Due to illness, it's ended up being 2.5 weeks with just a couple runs. Based on how I'm feeling, I need it. I put in for Massanutten lottery today, so my lottery fate will be determined by the stock market Jan 10.

Highlights- set 50k PR and 5k PR in 2 weeks, very unexpected on 5k
Won 5 races, 3 ultras, plus podium at 3 more
Barkley- most awesome race ever
Good win at TNF Atlanta, plus best 100 ever at Pinhoti
425 miles racing, most ever- 14 races in 6 states
3500 miles total, lowest since 2010. 33% were trails
Lowlights-
Hmm- nothing too bad. Getting lost at LM was a bummer. Being sick before Chuckanut and having it affect me at Barkley. That's all for now.

| AM- slept in, went for a run. It was 21 deg, so I wore my running pants, the first time I've worn them on a regular run in 3 years. 8 easy miles in an hour.
