I went for a slightly longer run today, 7.3 miles. This was the first time since last year's Cherry Blossom race that I ran more than 6.2 miles and it went well. I'm pretty tired but not extremely so.
The weather was terrible. Rain, cold streaming wind and only 40 degrees. The first mile, until I reached Custis, my arms were very cold but once on Custis the wind was less strong. At the final stretch, after having to wait for a green light at Fairfax Dr/I66, the wind blew very strongly on the Ballston Connector behind the Blue Goose and I even lost my breath for a moment.
Still, a great run. I ran for the very first time on the Bluemont Junction trail. So wonderful that that was spared from becoming yet another road, it is a gorgeous trail.
Once I got home I quickly took a shower to warm up. I had lots of big red spots on my skin from the cold but they disappeared after the shower. Much longer runs than this one, in this type of weather, would probably be unwise.
That was a surprise -- we got some hail and wet snow this afternoon. 
Yesterday we bought nice picture frames for the long wall in our living room. They will arrive in a few days and we are picking out photographs to put in them, a fun project. 
This weekend a new box with Duplo arrived.
Today I scanned many of our older photographs.
