{52 Snapshots of Life} Week 21: Sky

We're now at the end of week two of early morning runs, which were almost not necessary as the weather this week has been pretty comfortable in the afternoons, barely reaching the mid 70's. That's okay. It's just us in the mornings, with the breaking dawn. I don't have to share Henri with anyone else in the world. I'm selfish like that.

We made it out four times this week, Monday and Tuesday and Thursday and today (Friday). That's two back-to-back runs in a week! I'm hoping this is helping my ankle grow stronger. My legs were a little tired this morning, and I'm not doing any other workouts this week. We've got some work to do before we are back to Monday through Friday runs (with maybe the occasional bonus run on the weekend in a different location?)

Every morning sunrise has been different this week. The sky hasn't been entirely sure how much rain it has wanted to drop each day or when it's wanted to drop it. That can make for some interesting runs. We've been lucky this week. Sometimes it has started to rain shortly after we got home. This also makes for some interesting sunrises. Some mornings there are lots of colors and some are just flat blue. Some mornings the sun has risen earlier than the previous day. Some mornings the sun rises faster than the day before. It is one of the best parts about being up that early in the morning. 

This is my morning. Sometimes it's a little sweaty. Sometimes there are a few bugs swallowed. Sometimes a bird or bunny will join us for a short jaunt. Sometimes we might meet other runners, some with two legs, some with more. Sometimes there might be a scare or an injury. Sometimes it will be fast. Sometimes it will be slow, or just seem slow. Sometimes we'll have to push. Sometimes it will be hard, but it will always be worth it.
