I made myself a deal that if I went for a run this afternoon, I could snack during the football games.  I went out at 12:30 and it was 32 degrees but the wind made it feel colder.  I ran 10.54 miles and got home in time to catch the end of the 2nd quarter of the Colts/Jets game.

It was 31 degrees with a fresh layer of snow and still snowing.  I wanted to run a bit faster today, but that was out the window with the slick roads.  I ran 15.48 miles nice and steady in some new shoes.
