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.

Happy New Year! I haven't missed a New Years morning race since I started running in May 2003 and I can't wait to drag my tired butt to the start line again to begin 2012 right. I'm praying for everyone here to have a fast, fun, and injury free year. Carpe Viam

Perfect conditions for a race this morning! 38°, clear skies and 1mph wind. I had a good race considering I ignored my garmin and just ran at a pace that "felt" fast enough to PR. I was a little disappointed when I saw 19 on the clock as I approached the finish line. I could have fixed that by training harder or racing harder, or maybe just paying attention to my stupid watch. Garmin time was 19:34 and even though my time wasn't listed on the results, they had me at 15th overall, 2nd in my AG and 1st in my AG for the series since Scott took first today in our AG and he's not doing the whole series.

9:00am Hebrews 13 - Revelation 22

Finished the Bible for the 3rd time since 1/1/11 and listened to some music for the last few miles for the first time in over a year. I'll probably go back to Genesis on my next run.

Takin' my time, just movin' along...
