Went trick or treating last night with Sam and Larry Shaw and the Gibson boys.  Had a few too many chico sticks. (YUMM!)

Trail run planned this morning but high winds prohibit running in amongst the trees. I've heard trees falling when running at Cougar Mtn. before with not much wind at all. I don't like running the hills of Snoqualmie either in heavy wind.

Bruce called at 6:50 to say let's bag it. Was going to sleep in then I remembered that only 13 miles run this week so it's off to the treadmill for 10. First 5 easy in 40 minutes then did strides for one tenth of a mile on each of the last 5 miles.

The Brooks Radius shoes have got to be my favorite shoe ever. Slightly heavy but oh so comfy. Used them before the marathon to run from Snoqualmie Pass to North bend on the John Wayne trail for 22 miles and my feet hardly felt it. Should have worn them on the marathon too. Live and learn.

This is what the treadmill readout said upon completion today.

Coming from the garage and into the kitchen I am now smelling a cinnamon sugar walnut pullapart.

Oh yeah, that wind was wild. A taste of things to come. I think I'm going to try to tackle it and avoid the dreadmill, but I may eat my words when it's snowing and 20mph.

Wow! you ran in that junk. It was so nasty out there. I don't like the "dreadmill" as you call it, but I needed a run since I had run only twice this week. You are very tough to stay out there for 22 miles. Nice
