Batter up

It's kinda cold around the Jack Brown Diamond these days.  This is the only guy playing ball.  

But...  I'm getting a few runs in.  It's actually pretty good down there.  It's definitely sheltered from the wind and the footing is most always excellent.   I do all the loops down there in the Legion Park and then out to the New Pool, Ross St. and home.  It makes for just over 3 miles.   

Got one in at 11:00a.m. before the big wind got up in the afternoon  (Thursday, Jan. 23rd, 2014).

You know, before we know it, it will be spring and that stimulates the running.  We already can see more daylight.  Isn't that nice to be heading into warmer weather rather than heading into colder weather and darker days?    Now's the time to ease into it and be all set for a 2014 Spring .    All you have to do is layer up and start running.   

Keep give'n'er,

New Years Day

Got one in.  About 40 minutes.  11a.m. New Years Day.   Did all the trails in the Legion Park, up 6th to the Library, to the Pool, Tim's, Ross and back to my street (12th).

Never had any biters to run with; it was cold that's for sure.  The glass said -31*C.  But.... I never froze anything - I was well layered up.   I don't even think  "Free Beer" would get anybody out.    I should try it;  probably be a cheep round.

Got a x-country ski in too up at the Lake  (Glad Lake Trail).  Lots of snow back in there.  Did the full loop; about an hour.  The toughest part was going across the lake to get to the trail.  The wind could get at you there.  But once on the trail, it was good.

Happy New Year everybody.   See you out there sometime eh?

Keep give'n'er,
