13.4 miles with Jake, Fritz, Brian and Jon Kotter.  I have now experienced the Tanner Park death loop. Lots of fun and breakfast brunch for Andrea after. Great way to start the day.

First time taking out the Mirage 2s.  Really like them, light but a little motion control for slight overpronators like me.

Modified the plan for the week due to an awful nights sleep. I had planned on doing two runs today but switched that to tomorrow. Today I did my run after work then strength training.  I hate how early it gets dark.

8.1 miles with 10 strides during the run. Did some strength training after mostly kettlebell exercises
