Easy-to-medium run past Lions Park to East 31st. Overcast and drizzly out, and I  overdressed for a 50-degree day. Sweats off some of the junk I ate yesterday, I suppose. That said, this is the lightest I've felt during December since college. I haven't lifted weights, which I used to do every fall to get myself ready to ski, but the steady miles through November and December play the bigger part of it. I'm looking forward to January and February training since I won't have to spend 6 weeks slimming down.

An easy run around the YMCA loop after two days off. Tuesday I had an excuse -- jury duty early and I had to try and free my bike from a stuck lock before it started (didn't work) -- but yesterday I just let the weather intimidate me. It was pouring. Weather is better today, though I felt a little stiff and sluggish from the days off.

My brother was in town so we got up and ran the 11th-Shore Drive switchbacks. Just pouring over here, but now we get to go have the first Christmas meal of the season. I'm off a few days next week, so hopefully I'll up my mileage.
