Wind was howling at 40mph. Windchill is somewhere below 0. Once it gets below 0 it doesn't really matter how far, cuz it is beyond cold. 3 inches of fresh snow and all of it is in our drive way! I am soo not into winter this year. From here on out the roads will be like a skating rink. And so begins my love/hate relationship with the treadmill. I am going to have to get some new music if I am going to spend as much time on it as I did last winter. I'll have to get outside as much as possible, just for my sanity. Ugh!

Ran treadhills @ 8:49, then biked 5 miles. My legs ache tonight.

So I decided I need new music for my winter treadmill runs. Was talking to my mom while I was perusing on Amazon and she said since she didn't know what to get me for Christmas she would get me music. Woohoo! I now have 3 CD's coming with 70's music. Ok, this really dates me, I know. Music was good back then, most of the stuff these days...ugh. Some is good and I have an ipod full of it, but you can't beat the 70's.  :)

Two weeks and 3 days and we are Colorado bound. Can't wait to get my "mountain fix".

Ron, Bayly and I went out for an evening run. Temp was 5, but no wind. It was really dark. Fortunately the road was dark and the snow was white. The stars were amazing. Couldn't see Bayly at all as she is the same color as the landscape. We could hear her thunder paws run up occasionally to check in. We were frosty, and Bayly had her first set of whiskercicles.

Snow moving in tomorrow. Should be nice and slippery for the Jingle Bell Run on Saturday.

Temp was 5, windchill, somewhere a little below 0. The first 1/4 mile was really slippery. Once we got on the bike path the race organizers really did a good job of cleaning it off so the course wasn't to bad. Considering we had 4 inches of snow yesterday. It was an out and back, so the last 1/4 mile was really slippery. :)

My time was ok considering the conditions. There were 310 runners/walkers. I was the 21st female. I love the Jingle Bell Run! The outfits some runners wear are quite creative.

Heading out to shovel. Oh JOY!
