Personal:

I'm married with four children.  I run with a group called the Bingham Butt-Kickers, a really fun group of people that gets me out running early on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and sometimes Saturdays.   I recently found out that I've been running with poor form for many years, which has probably contributed to some nagging aches and pains I've had for years.  One of my big goals now is to be able to run with better form and to have running feel more effortless.  I hope this won't take too many years to achieve!

Today was no day to run outside--but I wouldn't have run outside probably if it had been 20 degrees warmer and no wind.  I only like running outside when I can run with a group.  Otherwise, it's to the treadmill to run and catch up on some of my favorite shows.  I set the treadmill at a high incline to practice hill running.  Fun, as always.

Friday was awful!!!! No one should have been outside running---NO ONE!!! So, what are your favorite shows that you catch up on?

Missed you on Saturday, may miss you again tomorrow (I think the snow will be too bad for me to venture out driving---but my kids are out of school so MAYBE) but will hopefully see you on Friday! Have a great Christmas if I do not see you before!

Kelli--Saturday just didn't work out for me. Maybe after the holidays I'll be able to join you all. You guys were awesome, running that far on the track. I don't think I could have done that. Good job, as always.

I like to watch shows that discuss the day's events, but not newsy shows, more funny and entertaining. The two I DVR and usually watch while running are Regis and Kelli and The View. They seem to keep my attention and make running not too boring. I do record movies from time to time and watch them when I want to run longer. You need something to keep from going crazy on a treadmill!
