run to work (again)

AM - 5.1 miles, 52:30. A balmy 18F at the start, lots of ice on the sidewalks. Four layers to stay warm: a 2011 Jemez tech tee, a long sleeve cotton 1998 Chris's Run 5K shirt, the heavy tech 2007 Leadville long sleeve, and my cotton Old Chicago Beer Tour sweatshirt. Tomorrow looks like it'll be one of the coldest runs of the year. Not sure I'll have enough clothes to make it in without freezing.

Read that Salomon has an $80 pair of shorts on the market. That's probably more than I've spent on shorts in the past decade. In fact, I usually don't spend $80 on shoes.

CRUD run this Saturday is the first section of the upcoming Fat Ass. All are welcome. 7AM at the Red Rock Canyon parking lot.

That sucks. Hope he sues their ass. He should be able to get more than the CS biker who rode into the back of a truck and sued.
