Feeling It

I have not run in six days.

I sucked pillow on Friday. I took the weekend off as usual. A warm bed and laziness kept me between the sheets on Monday. This morning - no dice - the sidewalks were too slushy and slippery and snow covered. I was just outside briefly tonight, walking home from a friend's house - there will be no run again tomorrow, it is simply too icy out there.

I haven't gone this long without running in months. Months and months, to be exact. I realized this morning that my body is actually sore from the lack of activity. My brain is screaming at me to run, run, run!!!! I need so badly to get out there, like an addict who needs her fix. I guess in a way, I am.

Hopefully the weather conditions will shape up to accommodate my needs. Otherwise, I just may lose my mind.

At this rate, it's going to be a looooong winter...
