Despite the pouring rain, we got in a bit of a soggy hike today. It felt good to squelch through some mud in my waterproof boots. It did not feel good when my waterproof shell leaked all over my arm and shoulder.

The rain was coming down hard enough that we saw zero birds or creatures–heard a kingfisher and towhee, but only spied a few intrepid disc golfers. The other success was that we bought a two year pass to McIver, our closest park. My goal is to start running back up once I drop 15 pounds–I just can’t bear to do it to my knees any sooner.

I only have 3 more days of February. I definitely feel like I am being much better about being active than last year. My next focus is going to be on mindset stuff. More later.
