Of course it rained a bit during my run this AM. I had brand new white shoes on...we are in the middle of an awful drought and the ONE day I have spankin' new, sparkly shoes on it rains (not much, just enough to make me chuckle at the irony). And the sun is out, now. Tongue

In what way has Murphy affected your runs/running? k

I saw a dead rabbit as I was walking down my hill before my run this morning. Looked like he got squashed by a car, so just about everything went wrong for him. My run went fine. I could go for a Murphy's stout right about now, though. Modified to add: BTW has anyone seen the pace bunny lately?

Runners run.

Ya he was chasing a snake into a tree on another thread.

He should have been watching for cars, instead. Dumb bunny. k
