Spoken Too Soon
I was so proud of myself…what seems like forever ago…just before this ridiculous onslaught of snow began to assault us all. You see, I had just started running again and was on a bit of a roll. I was in a groove, sticking with it, and looking forward to it most afternoons.
And then….the roads became unrunnable.
Or so I thought.
As the snow drifts and mountains began to grow out of control, and the sidewalks became all but nonexistent, I actually started to see other people out running. Yikes. I began to think evidently I am weaker and less disciplined than I thought. Shame on me.
….but then, just when the self-doubt started to grow the size of the insurmountable snow banks, I saw this news clip.
I’ll ride it out just a little bit longer, thank you very much.

Favorite trail running spot on Cape Ann?
In my mind, nothing beats running through the woods. Personally, I’m a fan of long runs where I run like a little kid – speed through the parts I’m excited about, stop to check out the really cool things, and slow down or even walk when I want to. I know this isn’t the proper way to train for a race, but I think running should be fun and firmly believe I’ll be a better runner (or at least go running more often) if I keep it fun.
That being said, eventually I’ll remember to take a camera with me on a run along the Ledge Hill Trail through Ravenswood Park. If you’ve never seen the view from the top of the ledge up there overlooking the harbor, you need to. So either go do it yourself now, or you’ll see it digitally when my camera makes it up there with me.
In any case, what I really want is for some of you to share your favorite spots to galavant through the woods of Cape Ann! If you’re willing to share, leave it in the comments section. And if you’ve got a picture, even better! Email it to me (dawn.gadow@gmail.com) and I’ll post it for all to enjoy… Meanwhile, get out and enjoy it!
