Personal:

No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.
Heb 12:11

Hot tips for winter running:

Screwshoes
Poor man's cleats. this works a LOT better than you would think! Very quick and easy.

LittleHotties
Are you cheap like me? Put those little hotties in a ziplock bag and use them again tomorrow!

Kickstart your dead Garmin
Hold down the reset/lap button and the mode button together to get your 205/305/310xt to restart if it won't turn on or if it freezes up.

You deserve an IPA for that run.... maybe two!

From rAtTLeTrAp on Fri, Jun 17, 2011 at 16:31:10 from 75.198.61.65

No IPA today. Even better, I'm sitting in the hot tub at the Y right now. There's one spot where I can sit and get a jet on each calf at the same time. Ahhh, Heaven I tell ya.. :)

Can you feel it?

From baldnspicy on Sat, Jun 18, 2011 at 00:43:29 from 72.77.101.46

I wish I was feelin' it! Sounds heavenly. Speaking of heaven, you're getting serious miles in at your unbelievably consistent speedy pace! Some things never change...gotta love that!

From rAtTLeTrAp on Sat, Jun 18, 2011 at 03:06:32 from 24.22.239.183

BNS - It was awesome except when I got yelled at by the lifeguard for having a cell phone in the hot tub :)

Nice running yesterday, saw you running into Steilacoom, you were very focused! Maybe i will be able to run with you again if this dumb calf ever heals, i can only do an arm bike for so long!

From rAtTLeTrAp on Sat, Jun 18, 2011 at 15:40:08 from 24.22.239.183

Preston - You must have tore it up pretty bad if you're still down. Don't get too carried away with the arm bike. I still think that's how I trashed my shoulder.
