Turtlehead Lake, Palos Heights
Nice run on a paved trail. All of the other trails in the area were either flooded or way too muddy.

Raining too hard in the morning so I took Sheldon for run after work. More distractions in the afternoon, but he still did pretty good!

First time running with our new 96lb puppy. Looks like Sheldon will be a good running buddy, he kept pace right by my side and never pulled the entire loop!

Run around the hood, just didn't feel like running today, overcast and misty, glad I got the miles in though, now I won't feel guilt when having a beer or two(yummy carbs)!

Country Lane Yellow Trail
Nice to be back on my favorite trail. It has been 2 1/2 months since I last ran the Yellow Trail. The single track portion of the trail was a little muddy but still better than snow and ice!

Nice run on the trails. There were several sections covered with ice and had the railroad tracks detour around the flooded area. Overall, a nice run!

Beautiful 28.0 ° sunny afternoon for a run on the trails! I haven't run since last Wed since coming down with a cold/sore throat. It was nice to get out there even though I wasn't 100% and there were still a few patches of snow and ice. It is amazing how much you miss running after missing a few days!

Danada County Trails, Herrick Lake
Lunch time run on the trails covered with 8" of snow. What was I thinking? Besides being a tough run, I forgot my running pants so I ended up running in shorts. I was the only crazy runner on the trails, there were several cross country skiers and people on snow shoes. The snow really killed my pace!
