It ate my blog....

I sat down last night and sent my fingers flying across the keyboard, blogging about how it was somehow colder than it felt yesterday morning. I don't know what happened but I lost the blog, so here's the recap...

It didn't feel terribly cold, but one of the doors of my car was actually frozen shut. It didn't feel terribly cold, but there were so many icy patches that I felt like I was taking 8 steps for every foot of pavement I covered -- and I was actually faster (and safer) walking sometimes rather than running. It didn't feel terribly cold, but the condensation inside the "bubble" of my double jogger actually looked like it was frosting over (the kids were happy, though -- always a bonus!). But I didn't let any of that keep me from getting out or staying out.

I stuck with it and did all 6 miles that were on our training plan for this Saturday's run. Because when it comes down to it, I just keep repeating to myself "The only way to run far is to run far." Except when I'm repeating, "The only way to run fast is to run fast." It just depends on the type of workout. But what always matters is that I feel better when I run. Always.
