    @RunnerElizabeth‌ - beautiful picture! What an awesome place to run!

    @Runningmischka‌ - Love those baby running feet!!

    @ddmom0811‌ - I am right there with you on the thin blood. I used to live in the snow and
    cold but too many years in California have made me a cold weather wimp!

    @LoneWolfRunner‌ - looked at your profile and realized we are close in age and have been
    running about the same amount of time. Makes me even more impressed with your distances and that you run in those conditions in PA! Wow is all I can say! Way too, too cold for me.

    @SonicDeathMonkey80‌ - Congratulations! That's a great pace!

    10 Jan - 6mi trail race, 2mi cooldown, 6th overall, 2nd AG

    Kinda impulsive race with my club. Snowy single track trail, 250ft of climb, 46min/7:47 mile. Tough tempo day, but brought home some hardware!

    1/5 rest

    Glad to be back in the warmer south for my last few pre-marathon taper runs. Heart rate isn't complying with my target marathon pace, so it looks like I'll be closer to the 3:45 mark if I don't gain a ton of fitness in the next week (or encounter ideal race conditions). Still, would be nice to crack the 3:35 mark at my second marathon later this year (Pittsburgh, May), but I'll likely need to take off another 15lb to get there.

    January 1 - 5 miles
    January 3 - 5 miles
    January 4 - 12 miles
    January 5 - 4 miles
    January 8 - 5 miles
    January 9 - 4 miles
    January 10 - 3 miles
    January 11 - 8 miles

    Total: 46
    Goal: 84
