Cold. Went tio the 5 Rivers Trials where the dams are. I have not been motivated lately and that is an understatement. So I went to the toughest trails by my house, I knew I would have to focus or risk tripping. Seem to pay off as I enjoyed my run.

Winter storm. More snow and ice - to the gym, more treadmill miles. The day passes would be killing me but a friend has a PF membership and got me in today. Boom. 9.8, steady.

After Wednesday run I thought I would get back at it and then Thursday came with the flu. Very nasty stomach flu. 24-48 hours. Violent vomiting. Sorry for TMI. 

Sore today and tired, but well enough to run. Back to it.

44º with a steady cold rain. The worms seemed to have vanished as did fellow runners. Not many out today at all. Eastgate to Ironhorse to Beavercreek Station. Tried at the end, but good overall.
