3.25 miles outside today (with the Superfeet, now that I"m breaking them in). Was dark when I started, but was bright by the time I finished. Didn't feel like I needed a headlight at any point, and the few cars that did go by gave me wide berth as I was plainly visible in my road construction workers day-glow reflective vest. Our neighborhood doesn't have sidewalks so I'm on the street.

4 mile beach run this morning. First run in a week since we've been traveling. It was spitting rain, extremely windy and dark. Running into the wind on the "out" leg was tough, but I felt great on the way back with a tailwind. This is the coolest temperature I've had for a run in a couple of months. Thank you Mother Nature!

I ran at work on Thursday morning--4.75 miles. The minute I stepped outside, it started to drizzle and as the run progressed, the rain got steadier (still light, not a downpour). Last 1.5 miles, it tapered back to drizzle and stopped in time for my post-run stretch. I wore a hat w/a visor and it wasn't too cold (high 40s/low 50s), so once I got past the mental UGH, it was actually a good run.
I love that picture Oak posted!

Seems like it's raining every Saturday lately. Blech. So it was back to the treadmill this morning, for 8 miles. I'm going to have to move my long run to another day, this is getting silly...

18 today. Hoo-eee. I think I know why my one friend runs at least five marathons a month ... it keeps him from ever having to build up mileage for the next one.

The rain stopped early enough that DH and I could do our Sunday long run at the usual time. The pavement was wet but thankfully, no ice (it was about 37 degrees). Saw more people out running today than we usually do at sunrise.
Felt very good/strong today.

Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

I totally bailed on my 9-miler I was supposed to do yesterday
Not sure what to do now. Try and make it up? Replace a shorter run this week with the 9-miler? Double-up on two workouts this week? Forget about and move on? I don't know!!!!!!
