So there's trailer out for the final Harry Potter flick. It's pretty cool, but in the opening scene there's a snowy mountain and the first thing that came to mind was "cool, I bet you could ski that" ...

Do you take water with you on the longer runs. I'm thinking I need to start carrying a bottle with me if I go more than 3 miles.

Ha! Maybe it's the asthma, but I can't do less than 3 miles even without water. I have a Camelback Catalyst hydration pack (more like a fanny pack but it does the job). It doesn't have a large capacity but it's enough to keep going. Heck, even running a 5K race, there's 1 water stop. ;)

It's really weather dependent. Last Friday the the 4+ was fine without water because it was cool. Today I really wanted a drink 2 miles in. Thinking I'll just get a small waterbottle and hold it in my hand. Don't want to put anything on my back.

I'm impressed! You're doing great with the running!

+1 on the fuel belts! Big enough to get you enough hydration to get you through most runs that folks go on, without being too big so you feel like you have an annoying jug of water sloshing somewhere around your waist with every step :eek:
