The Cookies Are GONE!!!

Yeah, every last crumb of a Christmas cookie is gone!! I'm not sad to see them go. We had a fantastic holiday season with family and friends but, it is soooo time to move on and finally begin to ramp up for 2010.

I haven't had much to blog about in terms of running lately. December was a planned recovery period. I ran to stay fit and to give myself some room to eat, drink and be merry. Last Sunday was my first run over 12 miles since JFK in November. With the wind chill in the -10 range....Stacy and I bagged the North Park run and met at the Oxford Club for 16 miles on the treadmill. I'm good for that once a year... and thats it. Can't do that kind of distance indoors.

We've gotten about 6 - 8 inches of snow over the last 24 hours. I had the most awesome 10 miler in the snow this morning. I have to stop here and give a product endorsement for Craft. I wore a Craft Pro Zero base layer top today. Just purchased it at Second Sole last week. If you only add one item to your winter running gear this year....make it Craft. Best Ever!!! 12 degrees and I was warm....and DRY!! I'll never run in Under Armor again.
