Frost Your Fanny 5K

 I ran our club's Frost Your Fanny 5K this morning in Huntsville on the hilly Spring Lake Sub-division course.  The race was appropriately named; it was 29 degrees.  I finished in 52:43 and was first of one in my age group.  I finished the month of January with 113.8 miles (average 3.67 per day).  The end of January marks 18 months on a streak of at least 3.1 miles per day.  My running streak of at least 1-mile a day will hot 5 years on May 10 of this year.

Friday before a busy weekend

 This was a Friday before a busy weekend.  Got in 3.5 miles at the park early this afternoon.  Mostly trails.

Running club meeting

I attended our annual running club meeting this Thursday, so I did not make it down to the Fass run.   I went out to the park early this afternoon and ran 4.1 miles, mostly on the trails.

Stayed in town

 Just to vary my routine a little, I stayed in town today and ran 3.6 miles on the roads and in the city park.

Group Tuesday at the park

 Being Tuesday, I met up with the group at the park this evening.  Still about 39 degrees.  I ran 3.8 miles on the empty park roads.

Still cold

 It was still in the 20's today.  The state park was virtually empty when I ran this afternoon.  Got in 3.5 miles, about half on the roads and half on the trails.  The camping area was almost empty and I never saw anyone else on the trails.

Got it done

 We had rain and sleet last night and the temperature was in the low 20's today.  Surprisingly, the roads were not too bad this morning and I was able to safely drive to the state park late this morning.  I ran 3.3 miles, all on the trails.  There was sleet on parts of the trail.  I had to be creative on my course to get in distance because all the bridges/boardwalks were covered in ice.  Luckily, no trips, slips or falls.

Back to normal

 I had planned to do one of the park runs to the south this morning.  However, the forecast was for rain and I was not sure what my BP would be.  So, I slept in.  No rain, but it was 35 degrees and my BP was normal.  I went to the park late this morning and ran 3.6 miles, mostly on the trails.  We are suppose to have freezing rain tonight and a temperature in the 20's all day tomorrow.  Getting a run in tomorrow may be a challenge.

Tough 3.2

 I went to the park this afternoon and ran 3.2 miles on the trails.  Tough run, as I was obviously having an episode of low blood pressure,  Got it done, but the weather will be a challenge for the next two days.

Fass Brewery 5K

 I ran the Fass Brewery 5K in Conroe tonight.  Nice weather tonight, but the next few days will be challenging with a winter storm headed our way.

A little rain

 I ran 4.1 miles at the park this afternoon, about half on the roads and half on the trails.  There was a light rain for part of the run.

Run in town

 I had an appointment in Conroe this afternoon, so I ran in town, instead of the park.  Got in 3.4 miles.

Crowded park for MLK Day

There was a line of cars waiting to get into the gate at the state park this afternoon.  Got in 4.1 miles, mostly on the crowded trails.

Longer Sunday run

 It was sunny and in the 50's this Sunday afternoon.  Went to the park and ran 5 miles, mostly on the trails.

Spring 5K Park Run

 I ran the Spring 5K Park Run this morning, for the 3rd time.  Finished in 51:49, almost a minute faster than last week.  First of one in my age group.
