Like most businesses, my gym closed early today (at 2:00 pm) for the holiday tomorrow.  So in true CTW form I got there at this time:

It’s really a miracle I got there at all.  I was supposed to run outside and then I slept in…and then I thought about 1,000 other things I’d rather do than run.  Eventually I forced myself out the door.  I only ran 2.1 miles, but at least I went.  And I took about 450 pictures of myself too!

But only one was mediocre enough to post…very sad.  I accomplished running and picture taking by the time the clock struck:

Not too bad!

Oh and it’s probably time for a running streak update, so here goes!

• Friday, the 16th: 8 miles!!
• Saturday: 1.35 miles
• Sunday: 5 miles
• Monday: 2.3 miles
• Tuesday: 2.5 miles
• Wednesday: 5.65 miles
• Thursday: 1.65 miles
• Friday: 3.25 miles
• Saturday: 2.1 miles

Total running streak: 18 days

Obviously, I need to do a longer run tomorrow, but I’m pretty happy with my running streak at this point.  I’m actually shocked I’ve run that many days in a row without killing someone.  A Christmas miracle indeed!
