This weather is absolutely killing me. I have not been this cold, chilled to the bone since I lived in the South of Chile and it was rainy and wet all the time.  On the flip side, it's like living in Ireland.  I've never seen the hills so green or the clouds and fog so low.

Sebastian and Ivan ran with me today.  It was nice to have company and together the two boys push the pace. So we averaged 8:40's on a flat run by the river.

9:34 ap It's a little warmer, but still cloudy.  The grey has me down.  It reminds me of June in San Diego when it's hot like summer, but overcast until noon every day.  I've been riding my bike to work in spite of the rain and I know it's got to stop soon.  I forgot to mention it:  I got in to St. George.  I really should boycott it because of their stupid lottery. But this may be the last year I can conveniently run it, and I got in, and I didn't get into NYC becaue of their stupid lottery....so I guess I should be happy I got a number.  Maybe I should just skip UVM and work toward a more significant effort at SG instead of all this trash running.

What a glorious bright, clean, cool Spring morning. FINALLY. My crabapple trees are blooming deep reddish pink and the grass on the mountains and hillsides is lush and deep green.  Everything was frangrant florals and peppery fresh.  I found a really great loop that only requires 1 out of 6 miles to be at about a 20% incline. I hate the hills around here. It was a great morning though, and I was thrilled to be able to get a good quality run & core work out in before breakfast.  I can't wait for the kids to get out of school so I don't have to rush so hard in the morning or put off my run until the afternoon or evenings. Today is a big day for me....I am ever closer to Jimmer Fredette on my billboard.  Coach Rose has talked to Jimmer's father and they've all said yes to both my radio PSA's and my billboard. I've just got to clear the project with his agent.  It will be so great to have a fresh new look and Jimmer's support.  It's the most exciting thing that's happend to me in a while.
