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.

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.

So much for my relaxing weekend. This morning we got a call that my son left his grandparents house where he was staying in the middle of the night and went home to our house. He locked all the doors so nobody could get in and would not come out or answer the phone this morning until the cops came to make sure he was OK. Everything turned out OK and he eventually went to school, but there is still some mystery about what he was doing. ugh! teenagers...

Apparently, all that got my adrenaline going pretty good. Once everything settled down, I knocked out my fastest 20 miler ever on an outdoor track near the hotel.
