We like having our runs deliberate months prematurely, however this winter has absolutely made us versatile. We simply hit a brand new document for probably the most snow recorded in Utah!
I awoke on Saturday morning and noticed that our roads had a layer of snow on them and determined that I used to be going to do the treadmill. My coach invited me to hitch them (2:2X marathoners) as a result of the roads have been higher have been they have been. I used to be terrified. I saved considering how significantly better the treadmill would go as a result of I wouldn’t need to push myself as laborious as going with insanely quick runners someplace I didn’t know the route. However I made a decision the issues that scare me are what make me a greater runner, so I received in my automotive and drove to fulfill them.
The proper determine 8 23 miler.
That yellow signal says, ‘camel crossing,’ which was a primary for me to see on the run.
It was the right run to nail down vitamin (a gel each 4 miles…BOOM!). I had water on the fuel station and a few snow, however I didn’t do a fantastic job with hydration.
I discovered my lesson final week having arms that have been too chilly to open gels. So I wore these big gloves (I can’t discover them on-line anymore, sadly) with hand heaters. My arms have been so glad, and I may simply take my gels. I’ll convey these to Boston, simply in case.

Let’s chat about our rework… This all began with wanting lighter flooring. I really like the colour of our darkish flooring, however you possibly can see each canine paw print and piece of mud on them, and we have been over attempting to maintain them clear. We then determined so as to add wooden floors to a few of the rooms with carpet, repaint all the things, repair our fire, add some built-ins, replace the moldings, lighting, and cupboards, and right here we’re… We will probably be transferring out quickly for them to maintain working. I want I have been extra like my sister and doing this myself, however I don’t belief myself… I’m positive we might do nice with the demo half however then get too lazy to complete it, ha.
