Pretty nippy this morning, started out sluggish but got feeling better as the run progressed. Later got to the gym for 30 min XT + core.

Went out just before lunch. Was hoping to see some sunshine but Mother Nature had other ideas. For excitement I did a few hill repeats.

Went out in the late morning work Kim. We tried out the yaktrax but ended up not needing them for most of the run. But they're pretty handy for the icy, snowy spots.

Drove up and did the Revolution Run at the Olympic Oval. Round and round and round we went. Plan was to do 48 laps which is close to a half marathon but due to some bad info from the timer chip computer dude we ended up with 49. Who knows maybe we even did 50. Felt pretty good especially towards the end.
