The northwest florida track club has one of its annual Christmas parties at one of the members house every year.  We did a run through the neighborhood before the party and I just ran with a friend that I haven't seen since the summer.  I'm not sure of the pace but if felt around a 9.  I started my GPS watch inside and it didn't track the pace. I just had an overall time. 

I found out that there is still a group that does long runs on Sunday and they put water out every two miles for 10 miles on an out and back course, which is perfect because I'm supose to do 20 this weekend.  I do have to push back my running schedule though and do 10 on saturday and 20 on sunday instead of friday and saturday like I usually do.  I'm glad it worked out that way because it was cold and rainy all day on friday and its supose to be clear skies saturday and sunday, but still cold.
