| On the treadmill, trying to keep pace with Tara's yearly total. I'm falling behind.

| I left work early enough to have a nice little jaunt up to the BST, to Northern Hills drive, then back home again. Too much uphill and downhill at a time. Gasp, wheeze, walk, recover.
The rain earlier in the day cleared the skies, and I was treated to a gorgeous sunset. All the puddles out by the lake were one fire, glowing bright orange.

| It's been busy at work this week. Hubris took over on Saturday afternoon. I took an ill-advised 14+ miler to Farmington Pond, via BST.
With three miles to go, I was hurting, but too proud to call for a ride.
But seeing all the streams with their undiverted, natural flows was great. Just after a side-by-side went zooming by in a cloud of dust and noise, I was treated to a dog-fight between a couple of red-tails. Chasing, banking, diving. The pond was pristine, with ducks, geese, and fishermen.
Other than a sore butt and mildly disappointing pace, this run had a lot going for it.
Next time I'll remember to take that intermediate step between 8 and 14.

| 7 on the mill. Stupid Patriots.
Mental health run that served its purpose. Boston is creeping up...

| 55 degrees in mid-December? I'll take April/October conditions anytime.
I was a lot better fueled for this run than yesterday, so it took 48 minutes instead of 54. Also, running outside > treadmill
I didn't wear my glasses, and as I approached my house, I could see a massive dark spot inching across the road. Got closer and gave a deer a start. She really took off.

| Run ranging all around, including swampy, weedy fields to get back to a trail after an ill-advised dead end. Good Saturday morning fun with Tara and Andy. It's been too long.

| 8 while watching amazing race with everybody. Baby kept trying to get out and torture the birds. 4 miles @ 8 mph, the rest were 7. Overall pace was 8 mm. Need to be faster. Maybe next month.

| More on the TM. Air quality is heading downhill. I wish it would snow for my brother in law. He needs some plow revenue.

| There is just something right about watching the biggest loser while doing a treadmill run. TM 10k. 49 minutes

| This run wasn't such a great idea. I skiied the next day on pretty dead legs. My quads have never burned like that.

| Warmish, wet run with Ash on the bike and Jack in the stroller. We saw lots of Christmas lights and inflatables to celebrate solstice. It only gets better from here.
Jack got cold, so for most of the run I was in a t-shirt, since I wrapped him in my jacket. It was warm enough for that. We had a nice fire at home to come sit by after the run. It was so nice to have company for a change, and not be inside on the TM.
Merry Christmas!

| Boring 7 miles. Mostly 8 minute pace, but the last mile was an easy, 10 mm cooldown.

| 7 more on the mill, 57 minutes. Sore back, not getting much better. May need to go see the chiro for some e-stim.

| Happy New Year's eve. After a little neighborhood get together, I came home for a few miles. To celebrate the new year, I fell asleep on the couch while my kids watched Veronica Mars.
