Winter Blues

I never thought I'd be the person to use weather as an excuse to lay around and be fat for a season.

At least, not anymore.

I trained through disgusting weather for my first half-marathon last Spring and didn't even blink. Well, I did a little; there was a lot of rain in my eyelashes.

This Winter is kicking my ass, though.

I'm trying to remember how powerful I felt when I was done with those runs,
how everyone else was using weather as THEIR excuse to stay home and do nothing.

What happened?!

I have the same half-marathon coming up again in April.

Winter can be over now.
My excuses can be over now.
This is horseshit.
