Surprisingly nice weather for the morning run on Beach Drive, let's hope it gets progressive lousier until the 'Hawks kick off against the Saints. Show those NOLA boys what it's like to play outdoors in January. (I'm rooting for the Seahawks because they are the home team, but also so there can be a Bears-Packers rematch in the divisional round.) 

Met Mike early, eight miles on the usual Slug route. We got going at a good pace and kept it brisk, hit a few miles at 7/min pace. Felt good and healthy in the legs and lungs; good sign for January and capped off a consistent, if low mileage, week. Back on track, updating the 2011 race calender and goals soon. 58:27

So that means you're rooting for the Pack this week, too, huh? Is that allowed?

Um, wow. Just wow. Go Hawks.

I was. But I incorrectly assumed the matchup, it's weird thinking the Hawks *aren't* the lowest seed. But Bears-Seattle I like, even though I'll keep my mouth shut at work this week.

It is strange thinking they are 4th seeds. Now you just have to root for the Bears and Pack, then you'll have an NFC championship game in Chicago.
