Got to run outside! Temp was 8 and there was some windchill. The road was like a skating rink with snow. The snow actually helped with traction. But I still ran gingerly. It was lightly snowing and the sun was trying to shine through the clouds. It was a very pretty day and if the roads had been better I would have run farther.

Six miles, not quite MGP. Ron and Bayly ran with me. It was another foggy late afternoon. Kind of cool. Everything was so quiet and kind of muffled. There is white as far as the eye can see, broken up occasionally by the gray trees. All the ditches are filled with snow and even with the road, so it is hard to tell where the side of the road is. Still really icy. We were very frosty when we got done.

The weather service is putting out rather dire warnings about another flood this year. The mayor of Fargo says it is to early to push the panic button. I'm going with his assessment. He has fought alot of floods. Not sure what the forcast is for the river by us. It was ugly last year. Took 40 miles to get to church, which is normally only 7 miles, because of all the washed out roads. Ahhh, life in a lake bottom.

Took Bayly to the vet for her wellness check. Vet said she has very good muscle tone and still has her girlish figure for an 8 year old. I told him she is my running buddy and he said, don't tell her she is a senior citizen. :)

I don't know what it is with weekends and storms, but every weekend I plan to do a long run the weather is bad or the roads are to treacherous to even attempt a long run. The temp. was great but we got freezing drizzle Friday night then snow. Ron had to go out of town and I promised him I would not try to run outside with him not here. So I ran on the treadmill. I decided to run by time rather than mileage. That did help. Took me about 2 hours at a slow, easy pace.

The days are getting longer, yea!
