With the weather being bitter cold out I know it is hard to get motivated for your run. @Therunchat has made it a little easier to get through your run. They are currently doing their second annual holiday scavenger hunt. They give you a list of items to look for on your runs. For example a snowman, a Santa, railroad crossings and a few more. You take a picture and then tweet your picture of the item to #runchathunt and for every thing you find you get your name in a drawing to win some really cool prizes. Not only is this fun but for me it has taken me on some new routes I would not be running. I now am mapping out courses so I can get things on my list. I am having fun while I am still getting my miles in. Today I was in search for a snowman. The snowman could be a real one or an inflatable. Since there is only a dusting I went in search for a inflatable one and low and behold I found one just a mile or so away. I took the picture of it, finished my run and then tweeted the picture when I finished my run. If you are interested In doing this check out @therunchat for details and join other runners on the first and third Sunday of every month at 8:00pm for #runchat where we all discuss a number of topics. So get out there and get your miles and have some fun while doing it.
