March on! Or float!

Happy nearly-spring!
Here in the Northeast, it finally feels like winter. Yesterday I went for a short run in the out of doors (2 miles) and wore the warmest smartwool socks I own, fleece-lined pants (which I bought for running, but which are usually too warm to run in, so they are usually lounge-about wear), cold-weather long sleeve shirt and jacket, hat, neck warmer and sunglasses and didn't really warm up until 1/2 way through the second mile.
But: The training schedule begins again! We're at the 12 week mark for the 15 miler, so this should be a nice gradual progression into mileage that hopefully I'll be able to keep elevated through the summer. I'm excited to be doing it, even more so because I actually have a training partner! JLB is going to train for and run this one with me! I don't know if he is as excited about it, but so far he is on board, so we can take it from there!
