Sledding, eating, drinking, more sledding, more eating, more drinking….finally got on the treadmill for a few miles this evening. I am snowbound at home, so will do my long run as 3 loops from home tomorrow…so won’t be in Umstead as planned

Y’all have fun!

I’m with Terp! I didn’t do a 5K today, but I shoveled the driveway for 3+ hours. See you all next week!

Nice tri Terp! I opted for some early morning snow lovin with the wife in lieu of braving the teen degree weather with Seuss. Sorry Seuss! I did however go for an afternoon run down to Shelly where there were at least a hundred partying sledders. Pretty funny to watch! Hope to see everyone next week! Take care!

I completed a rare triathlon today. 5K run around the neighborhood, followed by shoveling the driveway, topped off with sledding in the back yard with Abby.

I’ll see you guys next week. No plans to drive anytime soon!

It was beautiful but cold! I froze my Shot-Blox! And my Camel-Bak! Slow going but safe enough on foot. Sorry I didn’t see you Belky — have fun tomorrow!

I plan on being at the intersection that goes up to the parking lot @ 6:30. There’s a bench and a sewer thingie (lovely!) at that spot. If it’s too icy we’ll make it another time but I’m keeping my fingers crossed. I’m going out and back to Capital Blvd so you can pick a turn around anywhere along there. Stay safe!

Hey Seuss, you wan’t to meet at 630 at Shelly? I too will be running there, not driving! I’m up 8ish and hope to catch fgump Sunday morn! And I mean “catch” literally!

I will watch the site and hope we can do something Sunday. If there is snow, a trail run like BTN or ATT might be safer than Shelley–just my 2 cents. Look forward to seeing y’all on Sunday!

I have an old pair of trail shoes that will be receiving this treatment as a trial tomorrow.

Luckily a live a few miles up the greenway from Shelley so I am going to run down there from home Saturday morning — unless it’s absolutely horrible! If so, we’re going sledding and have hot chocolate! Stay safe!

I’m still planning to run Sunday, regardless. I’ll try starting from BTN. If I can’t get there, I’ll go to Hillsborough Street and start on that end. Still not sure what time it’ll be, but will post back here Saturday when I confirm. Enjoy the weather!

I’m not leaving the house this weekend. Y’all have fun I’m hoping for 70 degrees next weekend, and I’ll see you then!

I’m flexible either day…and Shelley sounds good if the roads are clear (you never realize how hilly Millbrook is until it’s icy…like five years ago when Raleigh came to a standstill during evening rush hour).

Quoting Sergeant Phil Esterhaus from Hill Street Blues…”let’s be careful out there.”

Good idea Littl’ bit! I’m in for a run either day. Hard to figure the weather at this point…may need to update this site on Fri. nite or text on Sat. morning?? Same for Sunday??!

Sounds like we have some votes for Shelley. Can we opt to run Sunday if the weather is bad? Shall we clarify “bad” and set time & place for both days?….. You know, just incase the NC weatherman is actually right

You guys are still running too far and too fast for me. I hope to be able to hang by springtime.

BTW, the picture for this thread is an awesome one.

I’m running long, too. Shelley would work for me.
