Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. Coming to you from the first snow of the season which is occurring as I type. When I checked last night they mentioned maybe an inch or two with no road accumulation .. well, that was yet another wrong forecast from our weather talking heads. It started around 3am and hasn’t stopped since now into the middle of the afternoon. Guessing we are currently somewhere in the 5-6 inch mark – when it will stop, nobody knows. My main interest in the weather was we planned a Springdale run this morning and wanted to make sure my apparel matched the conditions. Ended up having to switch a few layers after seeing the snow piling up. I will tell you, there is few things more enjoyable than a nice 7 mile run in the snow especially when you can pass those miles in the company of good friends.
In keeping with that theme, figured it would be a good time to give you a break from the birds and wait for it … bring you a post on the last race of the season.
Yep, another year in the running book closed out with the Peoria Half Marathon completed back on October 16th. I am not a big fan of this race, but it is conveniently close and most of all, I needed some race redemption. If you remember from my previous post, the race before this wasn’t a stellar outing (link here). This race was the third half marathon in less than 1.5 months and was a chance for me to prove to Linda that the previous race was just an anomaly.
