I went for my last run of 2012 this morning. It has been a year of ups and downs for me from a running perspective (and a great year for me otherwise).
I’m thankful that I was able to close out the year with an easy run with my wife on the Paint Creek Trail. As usual, it was very scenic and peaceful, and while the snow made the run a little more challenging than normal, it also provided a great backdrop for a quiet morning.
