Did a track workout with the Trigators.  2.25mi warm up at an 8min/mi pace.  0.5mi straights and turns on the track.  3x1mi repeats w/ 3min break in between. 7:50, 7:25, 6:58 mile times.  About 1.25mi cooldown.

Felt great with the cold weather.  I'm starting to feel like I'm picking up speed again.

Ran with a group which helped me pick up the pace.  Miles- 7:41, 7:36,7:37, 8:03, 8:07.  Had a side stitch the whole run, but it started getting worse near the end so I couldn't hold the pace.  My legs felt great though.

Averaged a 9:03/mi pace.  Nice easy out and back jog in the dark with my headlamp.

Averaged about an 8min/mi pace, which was exactly what I wanted to do. MGP.

Trail run.  The trail was very sandy with lots of foliage to hide roots.  I rolled my ankle twice, but nothing bad.  I have quick reflexes since I'm proned to tripping and rolling my ankle.  Started out at a good pace, but slowed when I hit the hilly part of the trail.  Averaged 9:26/mi for the whole run.
