Christmas Day Run

It was a traditional Christmas morning - presents under the tree, A Christmas Story on the TV, and cinnamon rolls in the oven..... It was a nice, relaxed, fun, family day. After the wrapping paper was cleaned up and boxes stacked and too many cinnamon rolls consumed, it was time to "letharge". That's our term for sitting around reading, napping, digesting cinnamon rolls... - just a lazy, hazy time. After an hour or two of that it was time to don my new running vest and headlamp and head out the door to run with George from the running club. He and I ran through the snow and ice and talked and ran and listened to the bells on my shoes and had a wonderful time. We ran until his Garmin verified that our five miles was complete and then we walked and talked for a bit and headed back out into the snow and ice in our respective vehicles with the sweat and fatigue that comes from a good run. Nice!
