Day 49- SUN IS OUT YAHOOOOOOOO

We had a great night at the Lazy T Lodge and found out in the morning that is might be haunted, haha but it was built in 1916 so you never know. There was a lot of ice hanging off everything this morning which made some beautiful shots. The trees,fences and grass were frozen solid.
Day 27 Day 26 Day 29 Day 210
The snow and ice didn’t stop Pat from sliding on the Luna s andals and getting his top off but it was very warm. I felt recharged by the sun which I had needed. We had started 10 miles west of Throckmorton where we had stayed at the big Bull on the hill.It was a sweet little town with 800 locals living there.

We got 31.5 miles in today after a late start and we stopped a bit early so we could go and meet the team training at the Veritas Crossfit gym in Graham Texas. Our dear friend John Sharp who has been looking after us so much introduced us to his friend Wade who works here. Wade had offered to let us stay at his house yesterday which we didn’t get to because of the weather but it was great to be able to meet up today. Everyone was training hard , me and Pat nightie able to run for 8 hours everyday but both thought we wouldn’t last 10 mins doing their workouts. Really cool to meet everyone and get to chat, Thanks so much for your support and best of luck with your comps coming up soon.
