Shoveling 15:00 [2]
Obliques sore from yesterday's shoveling.
Road running long 1:48:18 [2] 12.0 mi (9:00 / mi)
ahr:148 max:168 shoes: BA6
6x 2M out-and-back around the neighborhood. Susan is in Florida at a conference where it's in the 80's. No ankle discomfort. Some footing slushy.

What is it Peter G says is the key to running lightly in the woods? Never put more than 1/4 of your weight on a foot? I was thinking that this would be a good rule to apply to running through possibly wet snow in order to keep your shoes from getting soaked.

Central Market Double Fudge Chunk. Someone has been eating ice cream besides me! I don't recall anyone else exercising, though.

Wednesday Feb 20

Road running 42:08 [2] 5.0 mi (8:25 / mi)

Constant pace effort.

Left ankle got tender toward the end, tonight it's stiff and achey.

Monday Feb 18

Road running 27:34 [1] 3.0 mi (9:12 / mi)
ahr:134 shoes: BA6
Easy run late. After an unseasonably warm day filled with rain, I went out after dinner, temp around 40°. Two layers was enough on my body, but it was not warm enough wearing only a ball cap on my head. My ears got cold.

The seasonal melt of the roadside snowdrifts called to mind the action of the glaciers in the Himalayas. I believe I've read that their constant changes in size, and motion down the slopes, churn up rocks, equipment, even bones.
