Five flurry-filled miles

I did not get my long run in over the weekend. In fact, I didn't get any run in over the weekend. We took a road trip to see my brother & family so we wanted to be out of the house by 10:00 on Saturday. I really could've squeezed a run in, but I didn't want to be too rushed. Of course, I regretted not running because it was beautiful out that day. Anyway, we had a nice family time and I'm not training for anything right now so it's okay to skip a run once in awhile..right?

I knew I had to go out for something longer than 3 today after not having run all weeekend. I set out to do 5, got half a mile down the road and realized I really needed to use a bathroom. I could've tempted fate and tried to hang on until I got home, but that usually does not end well. I've been in that boat many times before. So, I turned around and headed back home and I was so glad that I did that. By the time I got back to my house, I had already run over a mile then I quickly took care of business and was on my way again..this time, I headed in the other direction..I get sick of running the same old routes all the time. Anyway, it got kind of dark and started snowing. It wasn't the kind that sticks to the ground. It was the fluffy kind that seems to disappear when it hits the ground. I love that kind of snow..it's so pretty.

I downloaded a 3 new podcasts. To be fair, I should reserve judgment until I can listen to more than one episode. I listened to 2 of them..I didn't strongly feel one way or another, but I'll listen to more & get back to you.

That's about it for now..
