| Though the air temp was above freezing, my opportunity to run came while Charlotte was napping and Chuck was out serving chicken at the Knights of Columbus. So...I opted for the treadmill. For whatever reason, my treadmill runs are always slower than outside runs. This was no exception. It didn't help that I stopped a few times (laundry, potty, water and chafing this time), but 7 miles is better than I usually do. I foresee another snow day this week. They're saying tomorrow or Tuesday, maybe both. I'd rather be in school. Is that blasphemy? | |

| I think I had a breakthrough in my treadmill running. I do not know what was the difference today. The time? (I ran in the afternoon because of the annoying snow day we had today). My breathing? (I remembered to take my inhaler BEFORE starting my run for once). My pre-run fuel? (I've been eating garbage lately, but have been making better choices in the recent days). Better hydration? (I doubt that one, because I didn't drink nearly enough water in the morning). Who knows! I didn't run fast or anything, but I did run all 8 miles without finding some excuse to pause. I did a little speed interspersed throughout the run, but just randomly when a song came on that spurred me to speed. Even those bursts of speed weren't really fast, though. | |

| I was supposed to go to a basketball game, but instead I took a nap. The last few work days have been a little crazy. We got our seniors out of the building Wednesday to serve in the community, a new tradition we've been dreaming of for a while which finally was realized. I got to go with a group of kids to a multicultural center serving migrant families. It was a good day. But after my nap, I eked out 2 miles, which is better than the zero I was thinking about doing. | |

| An easy treadmill run right after work but before driving to Springfield. Pushed the pace to around 8 mm after a little warmup so that I could get on the road. | |
