Tis the Season


Well - it is officially winter here in Zhengzhou. We woke up this morning to a light dusting of snow that soon turned to a flurry. The ground is white and we are supposed to get another 4-6 inches tonight which will be really pretty.

Luke and I are pleased that we have snow this year, seeing as last year, we got one little dusting and nothing more. This year is looking up for freezing my tail off.

During lunch, there was a clearing and I was able to get my run in which made me very happy. I guess running in the winter motivates me (mostly to get warm). I did 7 miles today in 1 hour! I was really pleased with myself and averaged under 9 minute miles the whole time. I can tell that I am getting better and really excited to continue my work outs. I am nervous about running in the snow but I think I will just have to slow down a little. I am getting pumped for my half marathon in January and July. I know that I will do well.

Not too much else is happening. The school is sending us to southern China (Fuzhou) next week so we are all excited to go on another adventure. I will update you if anything else is going on.
