Well it's 40 below

The wind chill is anyway. I hope my car doors aren't frozen shut again.

I managed to walk 30 minutes on the treadmill yesterday morning and 45 minutes last night. The majority of that was at my 3.5 MPH pace so of course I hurt my knee. I was on it when Todd came in from work and motioned for him to look at the console to see how far I'd gone. I told him my knee was hurting and he said "Maybe the answer is to stop??" No way! When I first hauled that treadmill up here from my aunts house, I could walk five minutes, then a week later I was up to ten, then stalled at twelve minutes for the longest time. I am trying to work up to an hour at a time and you can't work up to anything by being a quitter. I think my knee pain is an old leftover injury from high school. I was running hurdles and missed one. Got a knee full of that crushed cinder block they used to put on outdoor tracks.

Anyway, gotta go warm up the car if I can get into it. Have a great day!

Whoa! Stay warm today however you can.

...and I'd say "Ice that knee", but all you'd have to do is walk outside!

You live for this weather every year. Stop bitching! ;)

Gads, sorry 'bout the weather. Here in Southern California, we are in the upper 60s/lower 70s. We even barbequed last weekend. Just think warm thoughts! (and, get a Mac to avoid those viruses) ;-)
