I haven't been running very much lately. Mostly, it's because I just haven't had the motivation. The winter weather has ben extremely mild so far, so that hasn't really been the problem. I am incredibly grateful for the lack of snow and much higher than average temperatures, but running just isn't fun anymore. At least right now it isn't. Each run seems harder than the last. It's a struggle. It's a chore I do because I feel I should or have to. That wasn't supposed to happen. It was supposed to be fun.
Even with the mild weather, I am very much looking forward to, and longing for, brighter, sunnier, longer, warmer days. I'd really like to be able to shake things up again, like I was doing during the warmer months. I'd like to go for long walks on my lunch hour, go for 15-20 mile bike rides on the weekends. I'm just hoping I'm able to continue eeking out a few miles a day, a few days a week in the meantime.
