The ride, not the destination

I suppose I'm getting all metaphorical. It's something I learned yesterday and it has nothing to do with running. You need to enjoy the ride, no matter how painful or joyful it is because the final destination might be different from what you originally had planned. Alright enough of me waxing philosophical.

I ran in the snow today and, yes, it can be done. I think you have to do it when it's stil snow and not ice. Tomorrow morning should be much more interesting. The sun, in spite of the freezing temperature, is melting the white stuff on the ground - dangerous omen for tomorrow.

I am getting better, faster and stronger. It's only been 4 weeks but I can feel it. What I love is that no matter what is happening around me in my life, I have this and it is doing me good. I am remembering how much I once loved it and how much I love it now.

If you can get through the 1st 2 or 3 weeks, I guarantee you, you'll be fine and you'll keep going. Once you begin to see progress, you're hooked.

Don't look too far ahead, you'll trip on something.
