"Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired." - Jules Renard
January was off to a better then normal start to the running year. This time of year I frequently end up doing more cross-training then running to get ready for spring training (http://www.exploreepic.com/resources/200801/winter-fit.php). Usually I can't get motivated until at least February but the unseasonably warm tempertures in the Northeast have given runners the opportunity to stay in shorts and enjoy unfrozen ground through January. I have actually managed to get outside four Saturday mornings in a row for 2 to 4 hr. runs with some friends. It has been great seeing lots of people on the trails enjoying the outdoors at a time of year when most are in the midst of cabin fever. Personally, I miss the snow. But since I can't shake the clouds to make snow fall out of the sky I'll take advantage of the clear streets and trails while I can. Tampa Marathon this upcoming Sunday is a good start to the race season and February's training!
Cheers.

Hey, Joe, welcome to the blogsphere, or whatever you call it. It's fun, but does take time (I'm always late on my posts). Nice family pic. Good luck in Tampa!
Run hard in Tampa! Vermont is not far away!
