6:30am  I woke up to a fresh blanket of snow this morning.  The temperature was 30 degrees and it was snowing lightly.  I put on my traction shoes and had a good time.  I ran 12.38 miles and the traction wasn't too bad as the snow packed under each step.  It wasn't a fast run but it was a relaxing, fun time.
