Sunny Wednesday

Didn't go out Tuesday as I planned. Kids had a snow day. Got a bunch of snow. Had to blow out drive twice. Afraid the way it was coming down and real poor visibility I would be better off staying out of road. Stayed in with children and they baked cookies while I supervised. Just to make sure they didn't try to burn down our house. Good cookies too. Chocolate chip.
Today I did go. A beautiful day, 24 and sunny with a light wind. Ran 2.5 miles in 29 minutes. Roads were reasonably dry considering yesterdays weather. Felt like I could of gone longer but didn't have the time today. Just a nice run/walk. I need to try and eliminate the walking part. I'm walking maybe 5 minutes of my time out but really would like to be able to run all the way. Soon I hope. Don't know if I'll make running around the block before the end of the month but it is still on my agenda.
While running today I was thinking I really should get the cross country skis out. We definitely have enough snow now. Maybe tomorrow. We'll see. Nub's ski trail is not far from my house. I can be there in 10 minute and it's groomed. Need too find out how much a season pass runs.
I bought my wife a new pair of snowshoes for Christmas this year. She knows she's getting them. She promised to act surprised and squeal with delight on Christmas morning. Then we can go snowshoeing together. Sometimes I like to snowshoe rather than ski. More of a workout, at least where I go with 'em.
OK then. Will run for beer.
