Feel really guilty about complaining how hot and humid it was running this morning in KeyWest while my wife is home shoveling out a foot of snow and driving the kids to school since the roads are too bad for the busses to get there. 

But it was really hot and humid and I feel sick now.

Ran from the hotel out to Key West airport and back, there was a breeze off of the ocean that really stunk this morning, made me think I was running the Antelope island causway except there were Palm Trees, it was 82 degrees and 90% humidity.  Felt a little better than I did on Monday but it was still hard.

On the way back everyone was standing out on the peir watching the sunrise so I stopped for a minute to watch.  Cool that you can watch the sunrise over the ocean and sunset over the ocean from the same hotel.

Downright chilling morning this morning in Key West, 62 degrees, Brrrr.  :)  It was so nice to not have the hot hot humid run this morning, there was a pretty good wind but it just made it nicer.  I had a really good run, during the last 1.5 miles 2 guys past me up, for the first time in a long time my competitive side kicked in and I just couldn't let them "beat" me so I picked up the pace and went at a pretty good clip the last ~mile.  All my Garmins are broken so I cant really say what a pretty good clip actually is but it was hard and felt good to have the energy to give a final push.

I'm in Rancho Valencia today, about 20 miles North West of San Diego.  Absolutely insane place, average house price is about $10 million dollars, I have no idea how so many people have so much money.  I just went running around the neighborhoods, lots of hills pretty nice morning but not real great running, I was hoping to find a nice running trail. 

I'm not really sure how far I ran, I was running for an hour but with all the hills I just put down 5.
 

Do you want $1 million dollars, all you have to do it wear Addidas shoes.  Oh and run fast.

6 miles on treadmill.

Sasha, seriously create a fast running blog app.  I'll pay $10 for it.  I'm sure most users on here would.

Last December one sunny weekend on a whim Britt and I drove up to Midway/Heber to look at some cabins.  We looked at one and both of us totally fell in love, in a completely spontanious moment we put an offer on the cabin.  2 months later we are finally signing on it today.  Could be the biggest mistake of my life, 10 year plan is to move there permantely but for now I'm really excited to do some mountain trail running.

Spent the weekend at the new cabin, I was planning on running up there but was so sore from digging out 4 feet of ice and snow all around the cabin I never got around to it.  Slept in this monring and just ran the dirt trial.

Beautiful moonlit run along the dirt trail this morning.  I'm thinking I need to cancell my gym membership and start forcing myself to run outside.  Mostly cause I'm poor now that I have 2 houses.
