On motivation...

I rediscovered this morning that there's a trick to motivating yourself for those 0 (that's "zero") F runs. You only really need to talk yourself into the first half. After that, you'll realize that you are now a cold, wet (sweaty), asthmatic chic several miles from home. And getting colder and more asthmatic with every second you walk. At that point "Run home... fast!" seems like the most sensible and natural response in the world.
