We received a good 7" of fluffy white snow overnight. I was pretty suprised when I woke up and saw how much snow we received.
I and Troy hit the hill shortly after we awoke; we had to go out and mess up the new white snow.
The snow plows hadn't been by yet and I figured the Blue Hill Trail head wouldn't be plowed until mid-day. I decided to run a snowshoe run through our property.
We sit on a cul-de-sac and have over 5 acres so there is hardly any traffic around and plenty of space to run. I wouldn't want to have to run in my yard every day, but today it was actually fun.
I went up and down the driveway, through the cul-de-sac, onto our bike trail, around the veggie garden, up the hill, around the swimming pool, around the trampoline, up to the front yard and down the driveway. Repeat!
I was able to get in a good one hour run, huffing and a puffing.
The snow plow then came along and made a huge snow bank in front of our driveway. Steve is up north so is relieved of snow plow duty. I pulled out the shovel and got in a real good upper body workout.
Then figured Blue Hill Trail might be plowed out..and it was :)
What a wonderful way to spend my 41st Birthday.

Happy Birthday! What a great way to spend it - by being out doors enjoying the snow!!
The snow looks beautiful in your pictures!
Happy Birthday! You so inspire me by how much you love to run.
Quick question - I know you were successful with LL but I am wondering if its really important to join a boot camp? I bought the book and figured I could do a challenge on my own. Since you achieved such great success with it I wanted to know your opinion. I am a Canadian living in California, a sahm, 36, and have achieved good results with bfl, but not LL type of results. If you have a chance please e-mail me at suzieflyatyahoodotcom. Thank you.
