I looked out the window when I woke up and said, nope, not going out there today. It was pouring rain and I could hardly see the buildings across the street. The wind sock looked like a plastic road cone, it was blowing so hard. I decided to run on the treadmill. I got into my running clothes, then decided I would rather face the perfect triad of wind, rain and fog than run on that treadmill. So I got in the car and drove down to the lonely road about 5 miles south of Deadhorse and ran up and down the road in the wind and rain for 5 miles. I really want and need to run longer distances but today was not the day to do that. I woke up too late plus the conditions were horrid. But I made it through my 5 miles and have now run over 70 miles this month in the 12 days I've been here. I'm happy with that at least.

If you look closely you can actually see my car |
