Frustrating running weekend as the bitter cold and wind kept me off the roads for the first time this winter. Today was 4 inches of snow and freezing rain. 10 miles in the time I would normally run 12-13 miles. So effort and time put in today.

32 degrees, more freezing rain. 7.5 crunchy miles. Is making my legs sore. High today will be 35. I hope its enought to melt some of the ice off - I want to do intervals tomorrow.

More snow and ice. Slick conditions and a lot of resistance. 30 degrees. 11.25 in OVER 2 hours. Ridiculous how much the slow is slowing me down.

45 at the start! Great temps for a run. It was windy, but I will take it. At the end of the run it was 65. 4 miles warm up and then 9 MP miles (roughly the 7:40's) and then cool down. LOTS of runners on the bike path and most running fairly quick.
