Took the weekend off from running just because I felt like taking a break, came back with the 11th St-Shore Drive loop today. I'm looking forward to when it isn't so dark in the morning. I'm not real excited about my training the past few weeks, but I remembered this morning that I have met my goal for the first part of winter -- to maintain some consistency and run regularly -- even if the volume and quality of miles could be improved. That'll be the next step, and why I'm looking forward to more daylight and better weather. I guess it's a good day to write about goals. I just realized it's New Year's Eve, Happy 2009 everyone.

I feel the same way, I am just glad that I have still been running this far into the winter. Have a Happy New Year!

I'm learning that consistency is the key to maintaining fitness. Even if some of my runs aren't that great, at least I'm running and that's what matters. Oh, and I'm assuming you're wishing us a happy 2008, too.

Ha! I'm only an editor at work, grammar errors and incorrect facts galore in my personal live. Happy rest of the decade, how about that.
