Back in Seattle after a long and enjoyable weekend in the bitter cold of the midwest. I woke up this morning to clear skies, 34 degrees and no wind. I felt like I was in Florida. Did my patented 10-mile stroll through the neighborhood. Uneventful as I like it to be. The occasional patch of ice kept me awake enough to remember most of the run. Finished by 7:15 which in Seattle this time of year still means almost complete darkness. But in the summer when it's llight until 10:30 at night, it's easy to forget the short winter days here in the north.
Hoping to get another 6-8 miles in tonight. |
