Around here, predawn is typically 36 - 50 degrees, usually in the low 40s. Maine is going to be in the twenties or less I suspect. Maybe I'll get lucky and they will have a warm spell. I'll suffer through it in Maine since it's a one off. Well two off since I'm planning two runs. I'm also taking a jump rope. My sister was rattling off the planned menu for the family Christmas party. It's a healthy eater's nightmare! Weird thing is, my mom just got diagnosed as pre-diebetic and my sis didn't list a single thing that I would think would be okay for my mom. I told her that and her response was, "Well, these are the traditional things." Maybe I'll make some chicken.

And that's the not the only party we'll be going to...

It was only my hips that felt cold today and only when I was heading into the wind. Most of my winter runs won't be as long as today either. I'm kind of leaning towards the Brooks since they have a rear pocket. My Brooks capris have that and it's very convenient for stashing my cell phone.

I'm thinking I need to two pair though.
