Brrrrr! It is wonderfully cold this morning. Just came back from a canicross run with Wilson. It’s amazing how you warm up when you run - you still feel the cold, but YOU don’t feel cold!

The weather wasn’t that nice for the 3rd running of the annual Dogs Across America relay. On Saturday on the Silver Comet Trail, it was 55 degrees and pouring down rain. We still ran though, becoming SOAKED. Very few people showed up (I guess they assumed that because it was raining, we wouldn’t be running!) and we didn’t run as far as we had hoped. But it was okay.

Yesterday evening, I took Calypso on a loop trail and added another mile and a half to our Dogs Across America distance. It was cold and windy and we had a great time. I also know of several people running individually who will be contributing their mileage.

So DAA 2007 went pretty well, all things considered. I’ll try to get some pictures up soon (and maybe finally get the Mush Between The Lakes pictures posted too).
