Cold, dark, gloomy and rainy.  Not exactly the weather I would chose for a long run.  I wasn't sure if the battery in my Garmin would last the entire run so I wanted to do an out and back run so it would only have to last 10 miles.  Ran to the LPT and followed it to the end in Farmington.  Still needed another 1.5 miles so I ran through the neighborhoods in west Farmington.  The freezing rain started to pick up on the way back and my feet were soaking wet.  Felt good for most of the run but the last 3 miles were brutal.  This is technically my long run for last week and I am not sure how I will handle the rest of the week.  It is a recovery week so I may only run 1 of the 2 medium long runs during the week.

Holy cow I hope you are doing something fun with your kids for the rest of the day.

I took the kids and their cousins ice skating. I was helping my niece learn how to skate so didn't get much of a workout.

Are you running 20 in place of some of the 18 milers? How many 20 or more milers are you doing in this training cycle?

VERY NICELY done, Andy! Such mental toughness on a rainy dreary day. Good thing you had the day off!

Hey ... Smooth and I are going to have a quick lunch on Friday at 12:00 at Great Harvest Bread: 6357 South Redwood Rd

We were hoping you and Kathie could come as well. It would be super easy for you to get there. It's right off of the Redwood Exit on 215. :)

Can you make it?

I should be able to make it but would hate to crash your party.
