Brutal

The day

The run

Bad news stress and self pity

Blowing winds slushy roads and hail

Ran to meet Ivy League yesterday, in a rather ill-fated run

Outside of the park, with a brief and unsuccessful foray to Ocean Parkway, then back around the rest of the park and down part of Eastern

Footing was really bad and the toes went numb from the unavoidable slushy water

Had to stop several times because of random ripping stomach cramps

Is it worth it to run on these sort of days?

We did get to go to Tom's Restaurant and get pancakes!

Delicious

Then I trundled home, half-running half-sliding on the icy slushy snow

About seven or so sluggish miles

Maybe it was worth it for the pancakes? And the smiles?

  1. Guilt free pancakes? Definitely worth it in my mind!

  2. Yes! Totally guilt-free. I think it made the run worth it.
