Winter obstructed plans again. I saw that blanket of snow on Saturday and went back to bed. We had family in town so I knew I wasn't going to get another opportunity but running in 5" of snow would not have been fun.
As for today I got up early and ran 8. I thought it was going to be super dark so I was planning on running east instead of on the trail. But when I walked outside there was this big moon. I thought it would have already set. Cool, I can run on the trail. Well, about 3 miles to go and the thing sets and it got dark. I could hardly tell where the trail stopped and the shoulder started. It was on the way back and I didn't see any obstructions on the way out so I trusted that the trail was clear and just ran. It was a little scary and I ran a little slower than I otherwise would have but I'm in one piece.
