| AM - 5.5 miles with Finn on the White Columns golf course - even colder today at 36 degrees just before sunrise, but it is supposed to warm into the mid 60's by later today.

| AM - 3 miles with Riley who is now at home for an unknown period of time from Boston. A bit on a slow side, but great time to chat.

| PM - 10.25 miles on a pleasant afternoon in the 70's. Did the first couple with Riley and Finn and then they turned around to head home. Riley is not trained enough for a run that long and Finn is not adapted to the warmer temps yet.

| AM - got out a little later this morning with Finn; one of the smoke alarms in my house decided to start "chirping" around 3:30 am to let me know that the battery needed replaced.

| AM - got out slightly earlier today after overnight storms. So few cars out now - gives me more options for running routes. Did 7 with Finn this morning on the Milton trail /Wood road and Nix road loop.

| AM - 6 miles at lunchtime. Cool and windy. Kept Finn inside today - he was limping yesterday evening- his paws probably need some rest

| AM - about the same mileage as yesterday 5.25 more or less; different route today. Severe thunderstorms and high winds with some tornados in vicinity - lots of debris evident this morning. Part of my driveway was covered in mud runoff from my neighbor's property which is uphill from mine. Spent an hour cleaning it off.

| AM - 6 miles with Finn on a cool morning - reversed a route that I normal run clockwise. I think I may prefer this direction for a while.

| AM - a little over 6.25 miles with Finn on a crisp breezy morning - in the 30's again. Was not really motivated to even run as I went out - and thought at best I would just run 3 or 4 but after I warmed up a bit - I got comfortable with it. Turned out to be a good run.

| AM - 5k with Finn. Took it a little easier this morning - Finn has an eye infection and an ear infection, but he still wanted to get out to run.

| PM -- went for a walk with my family for Tracy's birthday. We made quite a spread for breakfast for her (pancake charcuterie board) and needed to walk it off. :)
PM - nice afternoon run with Riley and Finn of about 5.25 miles easy

| PM - lunchtime run since it was rainy and cold when I awoke this morning and I did not feel like venturing out. 6 miles on the hilly and quick side - and sunny by then.

| AM - 3.5 miles with Finn and Riley as the sun rose. Had some interesting conversations about how the country is going to be dealing with "re-opening" - inasmuch as the Georgia governor announced yesterday that gyms, hair salons etc., were permitted to open on Friday and restaurants are permitted to open on Monday; whereas other parts of the country are extending their stay-at-home restrictions. Some see the potential for openings and then re-closing if there are spikes in cases. Strange times.

| AM - 5 miles with Finn before starting my workday. Streets were wet from yesterdays rains - and it was much more humid than it has been. Left posterior hip was kinked a bit in the latter half of the run. I am going to attribute that to having run on the treadmill yesterday for the first time in over a month.

| AM - 5 miles with Finn this morning. Not a great run - Finn stopped short to sniff something, which nearly caused me to trip over him, and less than 2 seconds later I turned my ankle in a hole - which fortunately was not as severe as it initially felt. But, it was a crisp fresh morning and I was pleased to get the run in all the same.

| AM - 7 miles with Finn this morning before starting work. My runs the last couple of days seemed to be too strained - think I jumped into a training pace before getting my body warmed up. Started off a little more slowly than the last few days before gradually working up to my normal training pace, which seems to have resulted in a more enjoyable, less strained effort.

| AM - 6.25 miles with Finn - partly on the golf course at White Columns and then reversed a route I normally run through the gated part of that community - the hills were less severe this direction.
