When I opened the door to see how warm it was today, I got blown back inside the house. The wind was really strong. So I looked up the weather forecast for today… heavy wind, rain, and snow… continuing for most the week. I had been toying with the idea of signing up for the “Ice-breaker” triathlon this weekend, but there’s no way I’m biking and running in rain and snow at 25 degrees while I’m soaking wet after the swim portion. At the same time, I realized my chances for running this week may be diminished, so I better hurry up and get out there.<\/p>\n
I knew I had to run the whole loop today. I knew it as soon as I wrote it last Friday. I thought about that a few times this weekend. I was worried that it would be extremely difficult to pull off. It wasn’t. Running up the last bit of the hill on Sycamore wasn’t any more difficult than walking had been. Continuing to run along Sandalwood was a little tougher, but I was able to regain my rhythm after a house or two and then it was just a fun run to the finish line.<\/p>\n
