seize the sunshine..or the hail..

in the spirit of keeping my legs moving this week, leading up to this weekend's hippie chick half marathon, and continuing to burn calories as i 'rest', i decided to leash up my dog and head out for a brisk walk-- 10K or so. i live in portland, oregon, so i've got to work with (or around) the weather. it's a spring day today, which means hail with some sun-breaks. i took a chance on a sunny several minutes. it didn't really work out so well. about and hour, and three and a half miles later, my dog and i were absolutely soaked. just drenched. not the most fun i've ever had. but i suppose i've had worse walks and runs before. can't win em' all, i guess. hoping tomorrow is a better (dryer..) day!
