Cloudy Bright

I headed out at 6:50am for a run on the 5-mile Highland Green loop. I had intended to run yesterday, but just couldn't quite get myself out of bed. After two days in a row of not running, I felt a bit creaky on the first part of the loop this morning, but loosened up as the run went along. It was nice to see the daffodils blooming, and the forsythia beginning to blossom. The phoebes were calling like crazy, and a large number of worms and little slugs were out on the sidewalk. Must be spring! It was nice to get out, and also nice that the forecast was wrong. I thought I was going to be running in the rain this morning, so it came as a good surprise to have the day start out "cloudy bright."
