Happy Monday and weekly check-in

Firstly:
Congrats to [personal profile] losingit and everyone who raced this weekend! If you haven't done so already, tell us how your race went, we'd love to hear about it and congratulate you!

Second:
Inspiring quote for today:
Take care of yourself. Eat well, rest, train hard and smart, make time to think and breathe. Be intentional with your time.

-Kristin Armstrong, Author and runner

And lastly:
Any difficult goals you're stretching for this season? How do you deal with the fall/winter blahs and bad weather if you're Northern Hemisphere and the transition to summer race readiness for those of you in the South?

There are no fall/winter blahs! This is my favorite time of year for running... there are occasional days when the weather causes problems, but mostly it's fabulous. Right now it's 57F and sunny, with big puffy clouds.

Yay autumn!

Yeah, chilly and rainy isn't much fun. I love the cold, though--30F is probably my favorite temperature, if it's not too damp.
