4 inches of snow, uphill both ways!
Posted on | February 6, 2010 | No Comments
If last Saturday’s 15-mile run was like getting punched in the face with the 20-degree weather and a bitter wind chill, then today’s run in 30-degree weather and 4-inches-of-fresh-and-falling snow was merely like trying to run while dragging a 20-pound weight on a greasy surface. Easy, right?! Not so much.
Today’s 6-miler wasn’t as mentally-challenging as last week’s run against the wind, but it was step-for-step more work for the legs.
I’m very thankful for the ECHO Running Club, 3 of whose members are pictured in the photos here. Not pictured is ECHO leader and spiritual guru Brian Nash, who’s always an inspiration to me. He told me today’s run won’t do much extra for my legs, but it will do something for my mind and my will. He said runs like today’s might give me a bit of inspiration during my first marathon attempt. Hope so! 16 more weeks til the Flying Pig!
