Add Something New to Your Run

December 12, 2012

Getting up pre-work and going for a run is a challenge, especially in the winter. Sometimes I follow through with my plan, other times…not so much. Today was one of the lucky mornings where I did in fact get out of my warm bed and hit Central Park for a 35 degree run. I decided to give my run a…
