Yet another 'Winter Wonderland'

Well, it's a winter wonderland out there again today. And sounds like more is on the way for tonight and tomorrow. This winter is probably pretty close to average, but given the mild winters we've experienced the last few years, it seems a bit much. I'm sure the cross country skiers are happy, though. ;-D

Thank you to Peg Arnold and Judy Weller for teaching the running portion of the multi-sport class for me at the RAC on Saturday. Much appreciated and I've heard that it went well and that there lots of questions.

Here's a link to the February Running Room eMagazine: Running Room eMagazine Inside, my whole wheat pancake recipe. The photo isn't the one I submitted, just so you know. It looks like those cakes were made with primarily white flour and they have some kind of syrup/nuts on them. They do look good, however. Also, there's a 20% off coupon inside. Also a good article on pronation (rolling in of your foot during a stride, which is normal by the way--over-pronation is what we try to correct with shoes/orthotics).

March 15 is the St. Patrick's Day 5K/10K at Running Room. The entry fee is only $5 and you get this very nice embroidered fleece hat. What a deal! If I'm able, I'm going to do the Stair Climb at 8:00 (also just $5) and then dash down to Running Room for the 9:00 race. Join me!
