| | 13 miles on the big block & mt rd. 20*, 6 mph wind, 43% humidity, and all that snow piled up on the shoulder of my Running roads. What a pain it is dodging cars and trying to figure out where it’s safe to run without running on ice or calf deep snow. 53 days till Boston...

| | 5 mile tempo run on the PRT. 27* felt like 17* in 20 mph winds, 48% humidity. Even though it was a sad weather week I still hit the low end of mileage spread for the week.Sure hope the weather is a little better this next week when I shoot for. 70 mile week.
