I got that 7 mile smile

Running this week was actually kind of hard. Tuesday and Wednesday were fine, but then Thursday I got really sick. So sick that I actually skipped my run. Now if you are a long time follower of RTIF you know that I have a lot of tummy sickness, but I rarely ever skip. I dont know if its the cold or the dark or the fact that I had been tummy ache free for so long, but I just decided to just sit on my couch and enjoy a lovely dinner of dry cereal.

Thankfully, I make up for it and even banged out an AMAZING 7miler yesterday. I forgot how fun long runs to could be. It was warmer (high 30s) and lighter (I ran around 4:30 so I snagged the last couple minutes of sun). So I really just took it all in. I admired the frozen reservoir, checked out the cute brick houses and even cruised by Boston College just when all the lights went on.

Now lately I have been very down on Boston. Its too cold, too snowy, too blah. All I wanted was to move to a nice warm climate, LA, DC, hell I even considered Texas. But yesterday I saw Boston for the first time in a while. I started remembering all of the great things about this city and I'm now excited for spring.

Anyway, time to go for now. Just wanted to check in.

Happy running!
