Room For One More

Home...is where the heart is, with Cynthia Anne... and I hope to get back there tomorrow.  The snow may hamper this but I really need to get back home.  There is so much time wasted with travel in the winter due to flight delays and cancellations.  Weather has become extreme to the point of destruction.  I've managed to keep running through it over the years as it presents a manageable yet tolerable challenge.  However, business travel is unmanageable because everything is out of your hands and we are at the mercy of those trying to keep us safe.  I shouldn't complain.  I think of the people on the streets where 6 inches of snow and ice have fallen and how the many shelters open up their doors for safety.  When we we toured the Durham Rescue Mission with Tony, he said that the answer to the question of, "how much room do you have at the mission on a dangerously cold night?" is always, "room for one more."  Today, I struggled to get up to run, being in the UK for my 4th day, but as I think of where that money goes for each run, I always think, there is "room for one more" run, "room for one more" mile.

Today Day 43: 2 miles; 2014 242 miles
