Ran a very short loop in the Wissahickon - still enough snow to make it extra tough. Walked one steep hill, but kept moving for the rest of it even when there wasn't much of a trail.

Post-run stretching. I either need to do this or some yoga regularly.

While not technically running the whole time I did run maybe a third. Took my snowshoes into the Wissahickon and today I probably could have gotten away without them Ah well. But running with them on was a solid workout which was the point after all.

Went for a "run" in the Wissahickon.

I figured between all the melting that happened last week and the fact that my sidewalk only had about 4-6 inches that I'd be safe trying to go run the trails in the Wissahickon. Wrong. First 100m of the trail in off the road was okay but after that it was in to my knees. Did a small loop in the meadow following some other people's tracks but it wasn't what I had had in mind. Should have just gotten my showshoes I guess.

But I was breathing hard and sweating which was the point so it's all good.

A bunch of shoveling.

Need to start working out regularly again. A small first step.
