I had a congested baby early this morning; I wasn't able to fall back to sleep after taking care of him. So, I decided to start my run a bit early. Ran a longer route to the Stake Center to meet Michelle. Did circles around the building, in the parking lot for about 10 minutes, tempted all-the-while to wait inside the Stake Center. It was about 6'F this morning! Ugh! (A group of Basketball players had unlocked the doors.) Michelle is typically on time, so I knew something had happened. She ended up sleeping through her alarm.
I decided, since I was already a good bit into my run, to keep going and get it over with. Guessed on an approximate 8 mile route. I was unwilling to look at my watch because, half way through, my hands were ice blocks. Sheer misery! Upon arriving home, I checked my watch and was surprised that I was out a bit longer than I had thought. Distance is approximate...I'm counting it as a 9 miler.
