I don't mind running in the cold, but I hate the wind and it was really howling out there with this storm, so I decided to just get in some TM miles. 10 min warm up on the elliptical and then 3 easy miles. I ended with a 7:30 mile to get my heart rate up. No big woop.

Mt. Wire solo:

I started from the zoo. There was a thin layer of snow covering the trail most of the way, but 2-3 people had already been up and put in some tracks. The snow wasn't really an issue except in the steepest section where it was a touch slippery. I felt really good today, so I pushed it pretty hard most of the way up and even though it was bitter cold I was sweating a lot. Up high on the ridge it got windy which made the cold air sting on my face and I had to turn my head to avoid it, but luckily it wasn't sustained and there were breaks where I could warm up some.

I ran from the second saddle all the way to the top and hit the summit in 43 minutes which is one of my faster times up. The wind was really strong up there and it almost took my breath away, so I didn't stay long at all and on my way down to the towers my head was actually so cold it felt like a Slurpee brain freeze. Luckily the wind wasn't as bad when I hit the saddle. I had to take it slow through the steep sections because there was quite a lot of ice, but after that I had a fun cruise back to the car.  I'll be at the gym lifting later (Yeah- arms n back).

Weights at the gym (upper body/core). It was a very good workout, probably my best session in the last few months.

Churchball. I haven't played in months. It was fun, but I played the whole first half and barely broke a sweat. No injuries so that was a plus.

Rain!!! I was forced to run on the TM today. I wanted to do at least 10, but I couldn't take it after 7. Pathetic week!
