![]() Today, I got the hairbrained idea to run in the snow. Seeing that Sunday is my long run day, I felt that I had to. Didn't get the time I wanted, but did get the distance...2.45 miles. Again, my pace was abysmal, but I got this run in. Sidestepping snow chunks and trying to guess where the potholes were made me a touch apprehensive. well, tomorrow, i get a well deserved rest, and then off to the podiatrist on Tuesday for ingrown toenails.

![]() I wish I could say that running was easy this week. Sadly, it wasn't. Been very cognizant that this is the moment when people start shortchanging their previous goals and walk them back. I am determined to continue this quest. Again...To remind myself. I am running this marathon in October for a number of reasons. The Goal of a marathon can keep me on track for the goal of better health. ALSO, seeing that I am 52..and going to be 53 in October, I am not sure how many of these opportunities I am going to have to run a marathon. Like my son says, I am closer to my death, than I am to my birth. To start off the week, I ran my 2 miler on Sunday...which will be the day I run the long run for the week from now on. Here is what I did.
