I keep hearing rumors that warmer weather is coming, but I haven't seen much evidence of it yet. I missed last night's weather report, but before going to bed I could hear the wind and ice pelting our bedroom window. I wasn't sure what to expect as I stepped outside this morning, but was happy that it was a little warmer with very little wind. It was, however, snowing lightly. Ran the usual Highland Glen loop. Once I've established a base over the next two weeks then I'll start to build on that by upping the mileage and hopefully starting to do some doubles and one or two tempo runs per week. The WBR is not that far away. I also need to put in our registration for St. George.

I am sick of those same rumors Kerry! That is why we are heading south! Hoping to find sun and NO snow in St. George and Southern Cal!

Is your wife planning on signing up for St. George Marathon also? She really needs to join the blog!

Yes, Laureen is planning on signing up for St. George (this will be her 9th). She's a little self-conscious about her writing abilities, but I'll keep prodding her :) Have fun in St. George and tell everyone hello down there!

If writing abilities were important, I wouldn't be on here! Does she read the entries? If so,,,Laureen, this is for you..."Join us here on this friendly little blog! We really have a happy family here and it's just not complete without you!"

Kerry, good to see you back healthy and getting ready for St.George. Me and Sylvie are in (10 year club). Maybe we can run together if training goes well.

Stay Kool, B of BS Rools out

I'm so glad you're all healed up, Kerry. Good luck on your marathon training.

And this is for Laureen: "Hey! Get on the blog so I can say 'hi' to you. You've done a great job of converting Kerry to running. There are several ladies on the blog who would love to know your techniques! Good luck at St. George."
