While I was running this morning, it occurred to me that it was Oct. 2008 when I first started trying to run. It took more than a month of plugging away about 3 times a week before I could make it a whole mile without stopping. I'm so glad I kept at it!

This morning's run was just over 7 miles in one hour. It's time for the annual "now what mittens/ hats do I need at xdegrees?" Should have gone with warmer mittens and lighter hat this time...
