I am oh so tired of running on this stuff. But! Still runnin'!
PJ's Run was originally created in 2006 to document the training for and tackling of my dream run from Boulder, Colorado to Petoskey, Michigan: 1400 miles, 6 states, and 57 days on the road from June 6 to August 1, 2007. Since then, I continued to post occasionally with a focus on my running endeavors sprinkled with other bits and pieces of life. Fast forward to January, 2016 and my new Quest! To run a trail in every state. More adventures to write about in PJ's Run!

Slip Slidin' Along
Our little library seems to be holding steady in this white and slippery winter. However, we humans are having to be oh so careful. It seems that every winter I have one spectacular fall. I'm amazed it hasn't happened yet this year given the snow-melt-freeze cycles we have repeatedly experienced. Yesterday was one of the melt days, today we awoke to temps in the teens and about 1/4 inch of snow covering yesterday's melt/today's ice. Tricky going. So tricky, in fact, even Taz pup's feet slid out from under him as he rounded a bend on the trail we were running (yes, a snow-packed trail topped with a thick layer of ice, topped with that very light invisibility cloak of snow). My hope is that we get another 4 inches of snow today so that the ice camouflaged as snow will truly be a nice soft grippy layer of real deal snow for tomorrow's early morning run.
