Yay! We made it through the big dark. Did you notice how much more light there was? I know that extra 30 seconds really kept me awake. Seriously, this Bunny almost fell into hibernation...until the thought of the uglies from the Lower-48 stirred me awake.
The cold, darkness, crowded gyms, and lack of lanes, make training harder than anywhere else yet we do our thing, and we do it well. We get out there no matter what the conditions are like. Because of this, Alaska teams have been been a permanent fixture in the top five.
I was out last night and what a sight. There were rabbit scamper prints all over the trail and puffs of snow on the trees like little bunny tails. Even saw one of those tall things on stilts (don't try to argue with 'em; they make NCC'ers down South look smart). Because we get out there on nights like this, and have fun doing it, the other clubs just can't rest easy.
Hope you all had fun at Solstice. (Bunny knows nothing about a rumor of certain individuals dancing around a campfire wearing nothing but a base-layer of polypropylene.) Tomorrow is Christmas and Bunny just can't wait to see what Santa Claws is going to bring. May the Big Man treat you well.
Bunny

It was a beautiful day/night for being out RUNNING. Calm and peaceful with a light snow falling.
Running on the snow is great for the paws. Poor shriveled paws from SWIMMING!
And all the extra daylight giving us more energy.
