    I made it back out for my second run of the day for an additional 3.11 miles. So glad I got to run in Jastrzębie-Zdrój! And thanks for the hot chocolate @polskagirl01! It was just starting to flurry snow out there and the wind was cold!

    Welcome back into the group @BeverlyW1108!

    Your kitties are adorable @SummerSkier and @Teresa502! Did you all see there is now a 1st cat in the White House?

    @martaindale - I have not heard of RunSmart but if it looks like workouts that are reasonable and it isn't too expensive it could be worth a try.

    Thanks @polskagirl01 - that hot chocolate was delicious! Love the great info about the town!

    Hope everyone in the eastern US is ready for even more cold and snowy weather. It looks like it is going to be really something over the weekend!

    Thanks for all the good thoughts on Hobbes the Vizsla. He is feeling better and back to his normal goofy self. He does not like it, however, that I am not allowing him to sniff and investigate as much now and if we stop for any reason he has to get up on a bench or wall where there is nothing to tempt him!
    I had planned to get back out this morning with him but we are back in Santa Ana wind mode and he is all snuggled up under a blanket snoring. So I am not going to try braving getting blown around in the wind while trying to run... I only need 11 miles to hit the 100 mile club and that should be doable with 3 days to go.

    @polskagirl01 Thanks for the tour and the hot chocolate! It would be much needed after running in the freezing temps and ice there.

    Hi @Avidkeo. We missed you too!

    @Teresa502 Great running. Good job on getting it done when it was tough to be out there. Did you get much snow? We didn't even have a dusting, but it is really cold today. At least the sun is shinning. I love that your cat fell asleep watching a bird video. Too cute. I had another "nothing day" yesterday. I did try in vain to fix mom's oven again. That took a lot of time, so I think I was just done when I finally decided to give up. :lol: I did get a treadmill walk in.

    Nice running @polskagirl01 and thanks for the tour and the hot chocolate!

    @Avidkeo So glad to see you back and that you have found your joy in running again!

    @shanaber I hope the Santa Ana winds die down soon. I hate to try to run in the wind, mostly because I'm afraid it will blow tree limbs down on my head.

    @Avidkeo I'm so glad you are back with us. Yes, I probably have had it all my life. I'm just wondering why no one ever saw it before. Had I known sooner, maybe I could have kept it from progressing as far as it has.

    Catching up after a couple of days. All a bit hectic - my younger daughter has just been diagnosed with Covid. She’s fine, not too bad. Just lots of juggling with getting tests and sorting childcare. Have carried on with little treadmill runs - I want to see out this RED January, no matter what!

    Good to see you @Avidkeo, brrr to -10F @Tramboman. Awesome consistency @marisap2010. @polska_girl chocolate cheesecake bars sound delicious!

    Happy running everyone.

    No run for me today but I did walk 3.12 on the treadmill, then did a weight workout (lower body day), and then another 3.10 on the treadmill.

    We had about 3 inches of snow overnight @quilteryoyo. The temps though. It's sunny and 21F now but the real feel is 12F. I don't know how you get out there in the cold @tramboman.

    I hope your daughter's symptoms don't get worse @Faebert.

    Good to see you @Avidkeo! You know you always have a home here!
