Followed short running course from Google Earth Pro. No gym at hotel and within a few miles. We also have no vehicle as FBI will be shuttling us around for the Inauguration.
Felt OK on the run. Weather was rather brisk, i.e. 9'F for this run, and just a little chilli. I just did not bring enough cold weather gear for this type of running. But survived.
Today is a 17 hr day and a long one. Got home around 5 am from yesterday, and started working at 10am today again will late tomorow morning. OOGH!!
Short run to keep my brain functioning with this cold and long hours.

Got in a long run today to make sure I had a good workout. Felt OK, but weather was rather brisk this morning. My hands were frozen, but survived. Around 12'F. Thanks God for beanie head covers, and that nice warm jacket the wife got me for Christmas to run in. That kept me semi-warm.
Got a good long run this morning, and felt OK. This cold weather stuff is just killing me. But making it through. Got the run in so that I could feel good, just in case this week goes in hand-basket.
Felt OK, and cold, but survived it.

Just quick updated. Logging my training on paper. Just wanted to say all is good, but working super long hours everyday till Thursday when I fly home.
Washington DC is very cold, but all things are slowly moving forward and doing OK so far. Inaugurations plans are doing well, and just pray that everything goes smoothly!! Got to go, its 12:20 am for me right now. Got lots to do tomorow.

Hope you are all doing well, keep it up for those racing this weekend and good luck. Cheers.

Mapped course with Google EArth Pro, and then just raned it. Felt crappy as the weather is in the single digits, and gets up to 18'F for a warm time. :( Know I know why I left DC and live in Vegas. It may still get cold, but not this cold. Do you know that the Potomac Bay around DC is Frozen right now. That's how cold it is. WOW!
5 before and 10 after. Just not enought time to stretch more, but got some in.
As the wife keeps me accountable, no matter how tired, I must still get some runs in. So got a real short one today. Long night last night. Got home around 0500. Then sleept till 0900 when we had to get going for today. Lots of work to still do.
Got in a short run to wake up, then headed for another long day for post Inaugural events. Then we must tear down everything we brought, and pack everything, making sure that everything is accounted for. Good day again.
