Burr...that was a cold start, probably was just as cold at the end! Hey its Jan 5 now, what have you been up to and what are your running plans for 2013???

Dale & BroTom--I've been a bit lazy this week with my log entries. I've been running, and I'll take some time in the next day to enter them. I ran a Half-Marathon this morning, and paced a friend (it was her first HM) to help her finish in two hours or better. On a very hilly course, with a starting temp of around 0*, we finished in 1:54. She was pretty excited, but was swearing at me during the last few miles--especially with the steep hill at about 12.5 miles. No worries, though. If they're swearing at me, I know I'm doing my job.
