4x1mile at 8:00 minute pace. Feel better now that my speed work is on schedule. Felt pretty good, for doing it at 9:30 at night.

I can see clearly now the fog is gone. There was a bright orange orb in the sky today. There was a rumor floating around that it might be the sun! Bayly and I enjoyed every minute of it, even though we could only find 1 mile stretch of road that was semi dry and not muddy. There was water on both sides in the ditches she thought was great and splashed and played most of the 4 miles. My legs felt tired, but the sun was glorious!

Fargo is in full flood fighting mode. Predicted crest 38 ft. this Saturday. Two feet below last year, but still a major flood. Supposed to be 50 tomorrow. That will get the culverts broke open and the water will really start flowing.

There were 2 robins splashing in the sump pump water today. What a nice site that was! Temp was 47 and windy. I felt really good, so turned it into a tempo run.

Bayly and I went out. Temp was close to 50 and no wind. There were a couple of geese keeping us company. Bayly thought about chasing them but, there was to much water between them and us. If all goes well I'll do 15 tomorrow. The temps are supposed to drop below freezing for several days which will be good to slow the run off and give the rivers a chance to catch up.

Woke up this morning to winter, again. North wind was howling and the temp was about 15. And my cold is back. Ugh! Ron and I intended to go 15, but after 11 I was so done. Everything felt achy and I was tired of fighting the wind. Things are just not going as well as I had hoped. Two months out and not feeling all that great. Oh well in the grand scheme of things, these are only minor setbacks on the marathon of life.......Oh my gosh that sounded soo corny.   :)
