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.

9:30am 1Chronicles 22 - 2Chronicles 11

No big hills today, just two laps around Oakbrook. I didn't check my watch until the end of the first mile and then I tried to match that first split for each mile after. I kept having to slow down to get out of the 6's. I'm going to try the same thing tomorrow with some hills.

5:00am 2Chronicles 12 - 32

Pace games 2.0 fail. I could not keep my mind on my pace today. Constantly adjusting, never hitting the mark. Still a good run, just not what I was aiming for :)

4:30am 2Chronicles 33 - Nehemiah 5

I did a much better job of keeping on pace today. Pretty easy run except the second trip up Farwest hill(mile 8). Only 7 seconds between my fastest and slowest mile this time. The goal is 5.
