I woke up to the soft sound of rain outside my bedroom window. Cold, cloudy, and wet. Welcome to Chicago in April.
“I’ll run tomorrow,” I told myself. “Missing one day is no big deal.” I wanted to roll the covers back over my head and escape into dreamland. To relish in the comfort of my warm bed. To believe that this is how Saturday morning is supposed to be spent.
But I didn’t.
I pushed back the covers. I put on my shoes. I trudged through water and wind and thoughts of stopping short.
And as always, it was worth it.

Until next time, be strong, be safe, be well.
