It's Beginning To Feel A Lot Like...

WINTER!!!!!

I woke up to the first snowfall of the season this morning! 33 degrees and dumping snow...the wet, mushy kind. In this type of weather the number of activities you can do are fairly limited, meaning you can't roller ski because conditions are treacherous and you cant ski because there isn't enough snow. The options are 1) run 2) spin (indoors) or 3) swim . I was quite antsy this morning and felt the urge to be outside in the fresh air, so I chose option 1. The higher I ran, the more snow there was, surprise surprise:) It was such a peaceful and quite run in the snow. I would much rather run in snowfall rather than rainfall! Tomorrow, I quite possibly will get the boards out and head up north to check out the skiing. I'll let you know how it is.

A look outside the window this morning!

On the running side of things, I have some exciting news...both Cutthroat girls and boys teams qualified for state!!! whahoo! It was definitely a close call, but they did it! Congratulations to all twelve runners on the team. We head to state, which are in Soda Springs Idaho (yes, that's where Napoleon Dynamite takes place) on Friday. We compete on Saturday, so please send some positive thoughts our way.
