I knew that this time of year would be rough on my desire to maintain a
running streak. I can happily report that my last streak last for more
than 10 days! Got to 26 and then there was this...

Our Driveway from the Back Door Entry |

The snow started a week ago on Thursday the 6th and continued on thru Saturday - granted it was off and on, but still...quite a bit of snow for us in the Greater Clark County area.
I had decided to take Friday off because I was pretty much done for the week and had been thinking about it from the time I was driving to work to the time that the snow was making being at work difficult. It was distracting! So before I left for the day (a couple of hours early, bonus!) I officially requested the day off and then went home.
Friday rolls around and I'm home and I'm going back and forth about running - I mean I had already declared that I wasn't going to and that I would end my streak at 25 days. However, that attitude changed quickly once I saw that a friend of mine had just gone on her run and she described it as "exhilarating."
WHAT?!
Oh fine...now I HAVE to go. So Tom is working on the computer and I'm now done with my baking project - I start collecting up some clothes and go in and tell Tom that I want to run and ask if he wants to come with me. Well duh...we suit up and get going and it was not quite exhilarating, but man I felt better getting out - I suppose that was the exhilarating part ;) Okay - mark down Day 26.
We went just over a mile, but it was the best snowy mile EVER!

At least this last break was only 4 days and not 11 |
Today is 2014 Running Streak, Day 2. Hoping to get past 26 days this time!
