OK CALL US CRAZY


Wow what a cold Saturday morning for a run.
Some of us crawled out of our nice warm bed and
bundled up and met at Veterans park at 7:45 for
our 5 mile trek. We took off on our run but we
decided that a walk was more suitable for us
because of the road conditions was still a little
scary with ice in the residential areas.

I was excited that some of our group showed up
to brave the 14 degree temps with me.
I was going to do the riverparks trail
but ended up doing the designated course
with Kristin, Benita and Amanda.
Kristin and Amanda both brought their
cute dogs out to join us. We were also joined
by 2 others not with our group. My daughter
Alicia who is new to our group came but decided
she would run the course with her dad who leads the
Sole train group with Sandra.

It was brutally cold and the wind was blowing
oh so lovely that when we started out I couldn't
feel my fingertips and I even had double
layer of gloves on.

The route was awesome and not too bad
with the hills. I wouldn't mind that course again
when the weather is a bit warmer and not icy.
props to Tatur Dave for this course.
I enjoyed all the beautiful houses we went
by and still some had their Christmas decorations
up. By the time we got back we were like
frozen popsicles and I couldn't get warm and
was shivering like crazy.

I missed the ones that didn't get to come out and have
a bone chilling fun with us. I understand about
staying home where it is nice and warm in
the comfort of your home believe you me
it was oh so tempting for me.

I won't be able to make it out next Saturday
for even colder temps of 9 degrees to have
fun with you all but I have to play grandma
and stay home with my beautiful granddaughter

who is getting to spend some time with me
while my daughter and her husband go skiing
in Colorado if it were me I would want to go
somewhere warm instead ha ha.

Hope everyone has a great week
and I will see you out again in a week.
