Body is not happy with me. Slipped and fell on my steps this afternoon when going out for my run. Surprisingly came out pretty much okay. Landed mostly on my left fat ass. Slightly bruised my left back as well and slight strain of left wrist and elbow. I had previously exited and entered my house twice before today, once for coffee, groceries and then out to the dentist, which was no fun. Had on my Brooks Cascadia trail shoes then, but had on my normal Asics Nimbus road shoes for my run.
Went back in the house for a bit to get over the shock of the slip and wipe off my wet ass somewhat. Went back out, re-salted my steps and then out for a run to see how it went. Able to go 12K.

Took yesterday off. 8.8K in cold, cold, cold weather. Brought out the battery powered gloves. Hip behaved as long as I didn't push it. Occasional soreness.

10.9 miles along the Mississippi Riverway path, scenic bluff. 1 F and was good for about an hour and then a series of unfortunate events occurred and my hands got quite cold and by the end of the run I was just plain cold. Stopped and got a hot tea at a service station on my way home to keep warm while driving.

11 miles on windy snow covered roads. We got a surprise 4 inches of snow over night and it was about 20°F and windy. Last week I did my long run on the treadmill and it was agony so I took the chance for a nice run in the daylight and it was pretty nice.

4.5 hilly miles, slightly quicker than relaxed cause I was in a hurry. I'm always glad to run in the daytime

Fast Eddie, good that your hip seemed to hold up okay and hope that it keeps improving.
Kawasa, nice running!
Ran 9 miles on the paved rail trail that was covered with just a paper-thin dusting of snow, so the footing was pretty good. Almost everything else has been snow and ice covered. It was also a mild mid-teens and I enjoyed the run. First 4 or so were easy (8:40s then picked it up to 8:20s, which on the ice is probably L2).
Temps dropped in the afternoon now it's deep cold and windy and I'm not sure how I'll handle the weekend, will attempt an easy classic ski today (had signed up for an 8K skate race but it was canceled due to the sub zero temps and -15 wind chills.

So went out gingerly with the hip I strained yesterday. Not too bad as long as I kept it slow and in a straight line. Did spasm on me when I did a studdard step in order to a long step over a curb puddle. Managed a dozen K.

2 mile warm up, 3 miles at 6:05 pace, 3 min rest, 1 almost all out mile in 5:10, 2 mile cool down. Total of 8.15 miles.
Felt pretty good, I kept thinking of FE because almost the whole run was on packed snow.
