Winter is back.

Well it's official! Winter is back!

That white stuff is everywhere. I guess the weather people in all their infinite wisdom are calling for a colder than normal winter this year. What the hell does that mean? I have no idea what normal is anymore. Last year we were still riding outside in December.

Yesterday was the first run in the snow. Em and I headed out after spending quite a few hours purging stuff from our den. Man does it feel good to be organized. Order makes everything seem so much more possible. Oops back to that run. Pace times are out the window now until the footing improves a bit. I think I ended up running around 7min/km. It was nice to be out none the less.

There is an excellent article that Alan Couzens has written on his blog. I recommend checking it out. There is actually a lot of great advise on his site.

Christmas is now only a few weeks away. I am really looking forward to having both our families together again. It will be the first Christmas officially as family. I can't wait for all the good food and good times.

Things are still looking good for hitting the training milestones to start the new year. A little behind on the bike but I should be able to still pull it off.
