PM1: 6.75 miles easy

Some snow. I was a cartoon character slipping on a banana peel in a few places. Lucky I was able to grab on to a fence (light snow over packed ice is super greasy). I managed not to fall.

Megan and I are going to try a Mexican place in Fort Washington. The new place in Chestnut Hill is extremely tasty, but it is expensive and the entrees are the size of appetizers (no rice or beans and no free chips and salsa). Drinks are expensive and scanty as well. This place looks pretty good.

PM2: 35 minutes on the bike, followed by stretching and a pretty decent core session

Cantina Feliz... Looks amazing.

I'm all about free chips at Mexican restaurants.

Congrats on staying upright on the run.
