Today marked a run after the second snowfall of the entire goddamn winter. However, the snow that had melted on the roads also froze over as the air temp dropped below freezing. That resulted in a nice thin veneer of ice that made the first 3 miles high adventure in the (successful) hope that I would avoid Death by Misadventure.

By the end, most of the ice was melted. Between the ice and my usual first-few-miles doldrums, the first 3 miles were somewhat unpleasant and lugubrious. The last three miles felt pretty good, actually.

This doesn't completely make up for not running the last two days, but it was kind of wet and shitty outside and I was trying to kill the rough draft of chapter 5 of the dissertation, which I did.
