that’s all folks

friday evening i ventured out after the snow plows cleared most of the newly fallen snow from the streets. i ran my "easy" 5 mile loop then a 3 mile loop down comanche up university then back in on burton and comanche. the footing was lousy but i mustered 8 miles.

saturday late in the afternoon i headed down comanche with the intent of running on the glacial drumlin trail. unfortunately, the city hadn’t had the chance to plow it out so i doubled back and ran up university avenue out as far as it would take so when i turned around i’d have 8 miles completed when i made it home.

sunday i skipped running due to a road trip to lambeau with my dad to see the lions get beat. ugh!

monday morning i got out the door by 8AM and headed back down to the glacial drumlin trail. the city still hadn’t plowed it so i doubled back and ran up university out as far as it would take so i’d have 7 miles when i made it home. the footing was lousy, even with yaktrax.

monday evening i headed out at 8PM and headed back down to the glacial drumlin trail. this time i knew it was plowed as i had driven by it earlier in the day. the footing was reasonably good, hard packed snow/ice and it was snowing very lightly. i headed out for 3.5 miles then made the turn for home. heading back up comanche i had a bit of a headwind to battle up that last big hill. i finished up with 7 miles and am ready for a heineken.

MTD – 179.6 miles (25 days of running)
YTD – 2,000 miles (258 days of running – avg per day 7.75 miles)
Odometer – 26,337.9

forward onto 2008.
