Today was just wonderful. Beautiful and sunny, 30 degrees, 15 mph wind, but just gorgeous. It was my fastest time around the lake this month too. It took me a while to finally push myself out the door, but once I started running I really felt great. I've run 5 miles or more every day for the last 25 days. 154 miles. All but two have been outdoors. I've gotten quite accustomed to running in freezing temperatures and wind. I hope that helps me in November when I run the Polar Bear Marathon in Churchill, Manitoba. My wind limit for a comfortable run seems to be 35 mph. That's when I turn to the treadmill.
The road around Colleen Lake is always my favorite running route up here in Deadhorse. When it's this beautiful, it is a fantastic place to run. It was still quite muddy along the south side, but pretty frozen everywhere else.
