Highbanks this AM

Bob, Joe, and I went for a brisk run this morning. The cold air was intimidating, but with the right gear it was just another day at the park. 

Once I pulled into the park, I knew it was a good idea. The snow covered hills and the intense cold provided the physical/mental challenge that we needed.  Afterall, the Arctic Enema at the Tough Mudder is more intense than this mornings air temps. 

We fit in a solid 8 miles and the end of the run was gorgeous.  The hills are great and Highbanks is a very scenic place to visit.  We weren't able to spot the Bald Eagle that lives by the river, but maybe during our next visit. The sun warmed things up and it was nice to see as we returned to our cars.  It was a great start to the year and we hope to see more of you during the group runs. Bring a friend!  Bob and Joe know of Dunkin Donuts near by too. :)

It was nice to get a run in before the extreme cold temps visit us for a few days. Winter Storm Ion looks to be a feisty one. 

HOORAH!
