Personal:

Have been active my whole life, but turned my focus to running in 2006 after deciding to run a marathon.  I really enjoy the training aspect and staying healthy, but mileage has been on the decline over the past 3 years due to work commitments, so focus has turned away from races and more on just staying fit enough to still enjoy getting out.  Moved from Utah to Texas in October 2016 with my wife and 3 month old babe.

Ran to the river trail then slipped on some Micro-Spikes a friend at work let me borrow and ran on the packed down snow.  Pretty awesome being out in the snowy fields along the river.  The spikes are pretty sweet, a little heavy, but really good traction in the snow.  Overall I think I'd rather just ski and save the running for the roads/dirt/track.

It always amazes me when it's been so cold during the winter that 32 degrees actually feel warm.  32 and balmy today meant a nice run outside.  did some strength after.
