run #23 - beating the blizzard

Blizzards are a window into human nature.
When they are predicted and they don't hit, most people grumble.

Glad I got up early to run today, we're being blasted my more snow. Not that I'm afraid of snow, of course (I'm not afraid of anything).

Start time: 5:15AM
Distance: 5.6 miles (Knob Hill - East)
Time: 47:05
Pace: 8:24 per mile
Weather: 30F, nice and calm morning

Good for you. I wussed out of my lunchtime run because of the snow.

I can think of something you should be afraid of....

Bah! I am not grumbling----this weather is freakin gorgeous! I just hope it doesn't get my darling, darling hubby stuck at work for days on end. Feel free to take your next run by our place if you need some food---I'll be cooking a ton the next couple days...snow does that to me.

You should be afraid of Lulu.

Hey Mike- Brownie gave me $5 to woop Lulu’s ass for him when I am in Austin. Of course, I do not believe in violence but I still took the $5.

OK, who am I kidding? He actually did not have 5 bucks on him… but he did write me out an IOU on a post-it note.

The only thing you are afraid of is how bad I am going to kick your ass next time you come to town!!

Tiff - you don't want to fight me. I'll buy your three beers and we can call Brownie and tell him what a wussie he is!!

You just described the perfect conditions for a run...

Running in the snow is probably my personal favorite, ideal moments for a good run
