So I woke up in a sweat today. Some family members have not felt well and I thought maybe I was getting a cold even though that is rare for me. After getting up and getting my running clothes on I realize it is just warm and thats why I am hot. So my last week of running temps.... 47, 24, 61-71, 39, 19, 30 and 55 & rain today... Makes it.... fun.... 

Good overall run, ran some strides after 6 miles and finished the last mile HMP.

19 to 71 is quite the spread. i wish i could remember what 71 felt like.

nice run today -- way to add in some speed, too.

Oh, glad you are not sick!

I so want just 40's for running right now, you lucky guy.

Allie - I need to add more in soon, I may be taking it too easy - if I plan a few races that will make me do more. Looking forward to your Sunday!

Kelli- It was snowing and 29 today. Looks like more snow and 20 tomorrow. Hope that makes you smile :p Don't worry, I am always thankful for a random 40 degree day! Hey I seriously need to get you some recipes!

Oh, good, you can run in winter with the rest of us (or NOT run in it, I guess I should say). YEP, I am smiling.
