Notes:
  • Not the best week by any means, but I'm moving on.  No use dwelling on it.  
  • Holly ran 7 miles with me - that is a distance record for her.  I always thought she didn't  like to run longer than about 3 miles but it turns out that she just doesn't like to run when the temperature is over about 60 degrees.  
  • Also on our run, we saw a large rodent.  I've done some internet research and I'm still not sure what I saw.  Maybe a vole?  It was larger than a mouse, about the size of a large rat, but with a rounder head.  Holly was very, very interested in this creature and I had to drag her away.  I was not about to lead her get bit by or kill this rodent.  
  • Also on our run, the first half or so I was running through a lot of either sloshy snow or fresh snow and it was pretty slick.  That made for some sore stabilizer muscles on Sunday.  I was glad to get on some cleaner roads for the second half of the run.
