Fresh Air, a little snow, and a couple of dogs...

It's quite remarkable how little it takes to turn an exhausting day around.

  I was concerned about the roads being slippery tonight, so I took two of my dogs to Kingman Farm to run on the trails.  It's one of my favorite places to run and snowshoe, but I don't usually go alone at night.  I had my headlamp, but I wasn't quite as confident out there as I thought I would be.

I was only out for about 20 minutes, but I needed the fresh air.  The great thing about this challenge is that it is forcing me out on nights that I would typically find reasons not to go.  I am missing having access to a treadmill since the only daylight I can seem to find is on the weekends.  I would definitely be running longer on the treadmill on some of these nights.

I'm feeling grateful for this challenge, but wondering if it might be easier if it were an exercise every day challenge vs. a run every day challenge.  I guess it wouldn't be a challenge if it were easy...
