| Boston Common Christmas tree |
This week marked the first days of winter and the first of many double digit training runs. The balmy 50-degree weather in New York meant I was out for my long run in shorts and a t-shirt (it was orange, of course).

Earlier in the week I braved a record-breaking snowstorm (6.4″ = most amount of snow to fall on December 17th in Boston) to join a Christmas tree run. The weather seemed to be a deterrent for many people, since more than 100 people signed up but only about 20 people showed up. The roads were slippery, but I was pretty proud of not wiping out. We managed to hit up three different Christmas trees – Copley Square, Boston Common, and Faneuil Hall. And we even witnessed a couple get engaged at the Faneuil Hall tree.
