Reasons are Barriers: Day 25 of Streak

There is no good reason not to run today.  Especially since I ran yesterday and there was an ice storm happening in Tulsa, Oklahoma.  Today is the aftermath.

Really, if you think about it reasons just get in the way.  When it comes to doing things that are important to you long term, but might be easier to skip in the short term.  We can always justify something in the short term.  An excuse.   We can easily put off making that call, taking a risk for our career, saying no, saying I'm sorry, going to the gym or just lacing up some running shoes. Since I've been running in earnest, I've run in heat, cold, humidity, 100+ degrees, -20 degrees, rain, snow and ice.  While I have often fallen for the excuse my mind throws up at me, today is not that day.  Today is day 25 of my streak.  Here are a few pictures of the current conditions.
