The Upside of Frozen

I ran out to my car this morning in my running gear and my long coat on top so I wouldn't be too cold on the short drive to the lakefront. It was near zero this morning, but the sun was shining as we gathered on the path near Wilson. The good news is that it was so cold that I couldn't wait to get moving so I could warm up.
For the first half-mile, I ran slowly with my gloves covering my face, but I warmed up pretty quickly and was able to fly through the rest of the 4 that were on the menu today. Today was the first day I had a real thought of, "I can do this thing!" When I finished, there were boxes of munchkins and hot chocolate waiting for us. Yummm!
