Being the first day of the new year, it only makes sense to take on a Resolution Run event, and commit myself to yet another year of running.  This is the beginning of my fifth year running these crazy races, and I’m so excited about how far I’ve come, and what’s yet to come this year.

Today was the first time I’d run on the new route I’d mapped out and walked last week from the house to the east end of the Greenway.  It’s a nice change of pace from the trail I’ve been running on the other end of the Greenway, and eliminates the need to drive to the trail.

It’s been so crazy rainy here over the last couple of weeks, and finally the weather’s turned cold.  However, the last couple of days have been damp, cloudy and windy, making the conditions pretty tough.  This morning though, it was still, sunny, and a wonderful day to enjoy and begin new year.  The fact that I’m still here, still running, and still enjoying it was just a bonus.
