A Week of Running

It's been a busy week, with a trip to DC the first part and lots of work the rest of it, including today (Saturday) and tomorrow. I was able to run three times, though, so that's a good start. It's been bitterly cold, which means a couple of those runs were on the treadmill.

Tuesday was the best run, with 4 miles through Crystal City, past Reagan National Airport, and beside the Potomac River. The temp was in the mid-40's, it was dark, I could see the lights across the river, and jets were taking off over my head. Lots of bikes with headlights coming from DC to points south. All in all a memorable run.

Thursday there was snow on the ground, leftovers from Tuesday's storm, so I ran 3.5 miles on the treadmill. Nothing exceptional to report on that one.

Or today's, either. 6 miles on the treadmill between taking honorable daughter #1 to breakfast and honorable son to baseball practice. Then off to work for a few hours. And speaking of bitter cold, it's supposed to get down to 0 degrees tonight. I believe I'll stay inside.
