Scary! Yes, no running until he is aprehended.

Taping the marathon? My number is 13897. I will be wearing hideous bright pink shorts and probably a teal green t shirt. I will be smiling the whole way.

Well I may run in the morning...tired of my runs being foiled by the unexpected. Guess I'll just start braving the cold!

I don't run in anything but shorts! I do have a throw away sweatshirt and gloves.

doesn't it get cold?

It's surprising how comfortably one can run in the cold with shorts on. Once I get moving I'm fine. Depending on if it's sunny or not I can usually tolerate 30-35 degrees. If it's sub 30 I reluctantly don the long pants.

Pretty scary about the shooter. Hopefully they'll catch him soon.
