| Slept in and woke up to another rainy day. Family still a little under the weather so I headed out for a longer slow run. Can't believe it is Jan 3 and I'm running in shorts and a t-shirt in the rain! Felt nice out there today. Have not been consistent with my running so this half really felt hard.
