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.

The race was basically a repeat of last month's 15k, only a little longer and a little slower. I ran the first half into the wind with a group of about 8 runners. At the turnaround they all kept going on the miles course and the wind changed direction with me. I was all alone except for my friend the headwind for the rest of the race. #6 guy was about 4 minutes in front of me and #8 guy was almost 2 minutes behind. I kept up an honest effort, but there wasn't a lot of incentive to really push myself being all alone like that. I finished about a minute short of last year's time with an 8 second negative split. The highlight of the race was hearing the kids cheer for me as I finished up the last quarter on the track. Go Grampa Go!
