Had a nice... all be it slow run out in the cold night. The first three miles were lovely the sun was setting and the moutains snow looked pink... I had the entire parkway to muself!! Beautiful!! I had my headlight so when I was out on the streets I felt a bit better knowing that I could see a bit better but most of all cars would see me better. I ran around the city to get a few more miles in. Ran around the Chistmas lights in the city park, it was pretty fun!

The one thing about running outside in conditions like this is that I never feel relaxed. Because of the slippy conditions you are always trying to make sure you don't fall. I find myself tensing up all over.

Laps: 8:59, 9:27, 9:31, 9:28, 9:16, 9:10, 9:11 (soooo sloooowww)

** On a side note, I woke this morning (Thurs.) with a sore throat! I never get sick! I can't believe it. It's not too bad, I will see how it feels after work.

What planet are you on, girlfriend? That is not slow! If I ran those splits I'd feel like I had a pretty speedy easy run.

It sounds like you had a beautiful run, though I understand what you're saying about being on your guard against slipping.

Get some rest, clear liquids, vitamins C and D, and don't get sick!
