"No Traction"

It was one of those crappy winter running days where there's just no place to get decent footing. Because of the january temperatures and last nights snowfall only the most travelled roads had any kind of non-slip surface. And of course those are the very same roads you can't stay on because of the aforementioned traffic. Regardless I went out there for an hour or so and plugged away. I don't actually know how far I went or how long I was gone but it didn't really matter. It was just one of those runs the success of which is measured simply by ones perservance to keep moving forward.

Kind of like the day in general. Not much traction. Slow forward progress. But perservering none the less.

...and just to bring at least some value to this post I give you this totally unrelated but really cool quote...

“If I had a large amount of money I should found a hospital for those whose grip upon the world is so tenuous that they can be severely offended by words and phrases yet remain all unoffended by the injustice, violence and oppression that howls daily”---Stephen Fry
