I got this run started, but quit in the middle.  I couldn't breathe, and my legs felt dead, like zombie dead.  Mentally I wasn't in it, and decided "Why bother?"  I don't know if being flu-ey over the weekend is still messing with me.  One excuse is as good as another, so I'll take it, I guess.

Little girls on bikes,

Two year old in the stroller.

First time out this year.

 

Mid February,

First lightning of the young year.

Thunderous booming.

 

I can't decide if the first and third lines of the 2nd haiku should be exchanged.  Either works.  We stopped to say hi to turkeys, geese, peacocks and cats.  A mile later we paused at Reading to play on the slide.  Clouds loomed threateningly to the south;  luckily they didn't  track our way.  I love my kids.

Long run with Andy.  14 turned into 17.  I felt pretty wiped out.  I was glad to have some company, because I wouldn't have gone this far on my own, and it was good to take down a mental barrier.
