I felt pretty good on this run.  Pushed the pace a little, just to knock some of the rust off my legs.  We're supposed to get a bunch of snow tonight.  I'm not feeling very happy about that, but as long as it doesn't get icy, I guess I'll allow it.

I've been running with a mask on lately and I feel really creepy wearing it.  Today when I was getting ready I thought I'd scare my husband by going upstairs and threatening him.  Then I thought better of it.  He said it was probably a good thing, because he might have punched me in fright.

It has been snowing all day here, but the funny things is, it is the first real snowstorm this winter! Drive safe tomorrow! I'm glad you didn't get punched by your husband! :)

What is this "snow" you speak of??

Nice job pushing up the throttles, sometimes it feels nice to get in a run like that.

I hate masks. They seem to mess with my breathing. Unfortunately, they are kind of necessary up here. I've never thought of scaring my husband, though. hmmm ;)
