Did 9 in the afternoon with a mile pickup in 4:47. Felt weird at night - a little bit of a scratchy throat, so decided to cut the evening run.

Repeated the 10x1000 workout from last week. This time it went better - in part because it wasn't 70F :-). I took 2- and 3- minute rests. The splits were 2:58, 2:58, 2:59, 2:58, 3:00, 3:02. 2:59, 2:56, 2:55, 2:56. Definitely an improvement from last week - running on grass and avoiding cement appears to be working. Total of 12.

It's not Christmas if you don't run 12 miles in the snow :).
