Despite racing the clock on a work assignment, I was able to get in a 3.2 mile run through the snowy and foggy streets of Colchester. Mother Nature decided to remove all worries about the icy path to Day Pond by covering it with 3 feet of snow. And the Colchester DPW is doing its part by presumably leaving that stretch of road for last on the plow list.
It was actually a really nice run today, with temps in the 40's. I am confined to only a few roads given how precariously the main streets are, but by retracing my steps a little I have fashioned a decent 3.2 mile route. (Though I did a little Apolo Ohno impersonation coming down the last hill--definitely see how apropos his last name is now).
Today's miles, 145-147, were sponsored by Len Gutman. Thanks for sponsoring these miles Len--I sure didn't see running between 5 foot snow banks when you sponsored those miles back in January!

My mailbox is the starting line for runs from home - could throw
the whole 1,000 mile measurement off if we get another foot of snow! |

| The formerly treacherous path to Day Pond...now safe (and impassible). |
