AM- 14 miles. I set up 3 tv's in front of me at the gym with ESPN, NFL Network, and ESPN2, and listened to all the Super Bowl recaps and commentary. Riding on a high today. Run felt easy and enjoyable- I thought I'd go 10-12, but just kept going till the treadmill timed out at 99 min, then restarted it. 14 miles total in 1:45 or so. Longest run since June.

PM by myself. A bit chilly and windy but still fun. Even did hike only Brissy Ridge just for kicks. Not sure distance, but 1:54, so we'll call it 11 miles. Longer than the normal route for sure.

Lunch- very big group on a cold day. Wind chill in lower 20's. 12 guys- that's a big bunch. I stopped at an hour.

Lunch- it snowed today. Not predicted, actual real big flakes falling for a few hours. Even stuck on the ground a bit. I was pretty disappointed that by the time the fool-hardy of us frisbee players made it outside at lunch, the snow had all melted. We still had 10 people despite the snow on what proved to be a very enjoyable game. The cold wasn't even too bad, we were shedding layers by the end. Did a bit of running first, too.
