Went to the gym today.  Did spinning class, then a 5 mile run.  I felt really good today.  I'm thinking I should have birthday cake for breakfast more often :)

Five on the treadmill.  Seemed kind of easy this morning, which is rare for me.  I'm thinking it could be the birthday cake I had for breakfast again.  I may have stumbled onto something good :)

spinning again.  During class I started wondering why I keep coming to this same class over and over again.  I decided its the music.  I really enjoy starting my day with some classic rock and some current pop.  Makes me feel kind of young and free.  I also seem to watch my sweat drops.  If I don't have any, I consider the class a bust.  If I have lots, I consider it a great class.

Ten miles on the rail trail.  I was planning on running 8-10, then riding the trail (26 miles).  I assumed since the roads were clear and everything was melting quickly in these warm temps (40ish), that the rail trail would be clearn also ... wrong.  The trail was covered with slushy snow and ice, with very few clear spots.  I had to ditch the ride part, but thoroughly enjoyed the run part.  I enjoyed running through the snow, while trying not slip on icey spots and prickle balls.  I used the clear spots for picking up the pace.  Overall great day!
