January is Almost Over

It's been a great month with a 172.2 mile total combined with last month's total of 347 miles in 2 months.
I hope to run long (25?) miles on Sunday. A lot of my miles lately have been run in Hoka Clifton and Conquest. All miles outside in insulated CW-X tights. I'm reading 4 books on running, 2 on ultra marathons.
I'll talk more about the books in the next few days.
Go PATS!

Great January!

I'm having a great time running right now. A new goal can do wonders for your motivation! I have run 137.2 miles so far this month with 174.8 last month. I ran in the Hoka Clifton for the past 4 days and and am loving them again. I hope to run at least 10 before the snow stops me tomorrow. Jury Duty today so I got to rest up some and with less stress from not driving the bus I feel great right now.
I got a new book on the Kindle, "Ready to Run" another excellent book I would highly recommend.

Cold Day

I ran 10.5 miles today in temperatures ranging from 6-16. Aquaphor on my exposed face kept me from any discomfort. Thermal CW-X tights, Ice Breaker Tube, hat and base layer. Also Brooks' Heater Hog and Saucony mittens with Nike shell. So warm! I would have run longer but the frozen asphalt did my left big toe (bunion) no good. Bright sun, fun run. I'm not sure if I'll hit 50 this week, it will depend on weather.

22.3 miles on Saturday and a total of 53.7 miles last week. I'm feeling great!
I hope everyone has a high mileage new year! Run more.
