So I guess I spoke too soon yesterday when I said I was going to be running outside (Acceptable Risk). I did a warm up taking Cannon to school of two miles, which was lovely, but also concerning that the sun is coming up so late now!

I was planning on actually doing a planned “workout” on the treadmill later.

To my horror Cory broke the treadmill, luckily he wasn’t hurt. We have had this machine for many years and we bought it used so it has seen many miles. It seems like it was just a bolt that was sheered and should be able to be fixed. I’m sad that I won’t be able to use the treadmill for the next few days (maybe weeks?!?) before we can get a replacement bolt. We are going into a icy dark season so having a treadmill is definitely a need.

Possibly this could be a good things for me, forcing me to be more creative about getting outside to get my runs in.

My planned six miles ended up only being two given the circumstances today. Fingers crossed the rest of the week looks better.

After taking Cannon to school this morning my day unfolded as usual. Emmy and I met friends to play, it was colder than I would normally like for a playground but it’s worth it to see friends.

We ate lunch, cuddled, read books, played and just enjoyed our day.

I taught class in the evening, covering sampling distributions then relaxed a bit watching Vuelta a España before heading to bed later than I should have.
