7 Miles, 30 degrees and Still Tons of Snow on the Ground



So this picture is from Wednesday when Mother Nature was generous and gave us almost two feet of snow. I did a little running inside this week and some kickboxing, but was feeling less than prepared for today's 7 mile team run.

My Mom got an e-mail last night from our friend Kate, who will be having a bone marrow transplant any hour now (she lives in Australia and the procedure is scheduled for Monday). The e-mail was an account of what she went through this week in order to prepare for the bone marrow transplant on Monday. After reading Kate's e-mail and since she is my inspiration for the marathon, there was just no way I could complain about about running 7 miles. Not at all.

The 7 miles went by quick, so much so that I ran further than 7 by mistake. Bring on the mileage. I'm ready.
