Dude, I am wearing heavy ski mittens to try to keep my hands warm!
Thanks for the note on the Master's stuff, I might look into it as well!

I'll go with the heavy gloves tomorrow. I was suffering this morning.

I remember feeling sorry for those toys on the island of misfit toys when I was little. And was so happy when they heard the jingle of Santa's sleigh coming to pick them up. what a great movie.

Scott - yeah, and the Burl Ives snowman narration is the best as well.

Some things get better with age...the Hunt family, including Max (3) and Sophie (1), very much enjoyed the Rudolph classic last night.
As to running, I'll never complain about the weather in Little Rock again!

Those are some good runs in cold weather! I am trying to figure out how to continue the mileage during rainy weather. Sometime I wish it would snow more here, because it is easier to run in slow than nasty, wet rain!
P.S. How do I know if I am ready for a 20 miler?

Scott - I remember when I was a kid not being sure whether I should be afraid of that abominable snowman or feel sorry for it. Last night when he's putting the star on the tree at the end I was thinking "come on, you're the abominable snowman for crying out loud. Devour that little I-want-to-be-a-dentist elf right now"!
