Finished my second non-fiction book today.\u00a0 A Runner’s High by Dean Karnazes. I enjoyed reading about his journey through the 2019 Western States 100. His 11th finish of the grueling race.\u00a0 Reading it makes me want to run it, but also makes it really hard to want to push my body that way through 100 miles. I wish he had talked more about the Silk Road Ultramarathon he ran solo through East Asia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was also another cold and windy day. We didn’t have school due to the low wind chill. It warmed up in the afternoon and sunny. I went out and skiied. It was really windy out and the windchill might have been the lowest of the days I’d been out in the last few days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
