5°F with windchill is…refreshing.

Tonight’s run was good. Lumpy and I ran together. I mixed my schedule, combining a 3 mile run with a 7 mile run and we did 5-ish. Felt good. The thing about running in cold weather when it’s windy, is that in one direction you are dressed perfectly. In the opposite direction, you’re hot as hell. Unfortunately, that’s just the way it is. I felt great tonight and I’m glad it’s a step-back week. The shorter mileage is a nice break. Grad school started this week, and I’m going to have a crapload of reading to do and think about and some massive writing to do. I’m pretty sure all of my runs will be filled with thoughts of feminist theory, race relations, transgender issues, and class structure in the U.S. today. whoo. On top of that, I need to start thinking about where I would like to attempt to get a teaching job, if I’ll even be able to…send good vibes. I will need ‘em this semester.
