We used to run for Coach Gary Truce at SUNY Binghamton a long time ago! We're over a half-century old now (and yikes, many of us are over 65). BUT we still run, bike, ROW, XC ski, walk, and work out! Please join us, whether or not you ran for Gary!

Winter Training in the Frozen North
Winter training is continuing here in the frozen tundra, but it's not all bad. Although tonight's 4-mile run occurred in the dark, cold, and icey-pellet type snow hitting my face, last week I cross country skii 4 times, including two times in the scenic woods surrounding my home town of Houghton, NY.
In fact, I was joined by fellow Dr. K Strider, Michael K. Raybuck, during one of those sessions.
I actually used my Garmin and conducted a 5-K time trial in the woods, and averaged about 10:58 per mile. Seems slow, but skiing is slower than running.
Enjoy the video clip below of Michael K. Raybuck skiing in the scenic forest surrounding Houghton.
