It is really winter
Well old man winter has finally hit. We have had a week of cold and snow and it would seem that it is going to be around for a while. It has made it difficult to get out and run so I have spent most of my time on the treadmill. The Austin race is less then 4 weeks away and I feel pretty good. I have started to eat right again in hopes of losing a little of the extra pounds before the race. I also just signed up for the ING Half in Atlanta in March. Linda and I have made plans to stay with friends while we are there. It should be great.
The training is going well, I am a little tired of running. After the Austin race, I am going to have to find a new running routine. I am thinking about running with one of the Saturday morning groups. I am also going to add back in a little strength training and stretching, probably YOGA.
The girls are back in school getting settled into their second semester. I am pretty sure they were ready to get back to their friends. The next time we all get back together is in March for our trip to Mexico - by then I am sure we will all be in need of a little sun.
Thought you might enjoy some pics of the winter here in Rochester.

The Countdown Clock
Thought it would be nice to have a countdown clock for the Austin Half Marathon. Only 46 days left - need to really get focused on weight loss and speed. I have figured out how to adjust my training to allow for the extra weeks. This is really going to come at a perfect time. I am quite sure that Linda and I will be ready to get out of the snow (which to date we have had none)
The goal is to drop 10 - 15 pounds in 46 days - should be doable......
