Skipped the Eighter

Decided against driving to Waterloo this morning. Lack of sleep , blizzard like conditions and a general dislike for running in the cold were the three strikes that made me decide not to Race today. The taper yesterday was without cause .... hope to log some longer runs this week. After a leisurely breakfast today I fired up the home theater and jumped on the treadmill logging a total of 22Km. Covered 17K at a 5:45 pace , picked it up for 4K through 21K at a 5:00 pace then I did a 1K cool down. Could have gone longer but I want to do Blue tonight and then repeat a 20+K tomorrow....its going to be a busy week.
