Getting a bit colder....


Had enough daylight to enjoy a 1.5-mile hike with the dog at Stony Brook Conservation Area;  took us about 30 minutes - the temperature helped us move faster!

This day in 1997...
Looking back in time, I completed my 13th marathon on this day in 1997.  It was the Grupa Dupa held at the Talcott Mountain State Park, home of the Hueblin Tower.  I believe Tony Weisgram and Janice Kuhl were the organizers of this "Fat Ass 50" type event.  I recall it consisted of loops up and around the tower, but I do not recall how many.  It was 50k, and I recorded a time of 5:11:13.
