AM - a little over 6 miles with Darryl this morning.  Much colder in the 30's and windy.  Slipped in the new development on a muddy section of road from all of the rain yesterday and went down, skinning one of my knees - but no real harm done. 

AM - 5 miles on the trail with Dan - quite cold in the mid 20's, icy in some areas.  Travel week - later today to London and back and then to Boston.  

PM - 5 miles on a treadmill in a gym in London across from my hotel.   It was raining when I arrived and I knew I wanted to run outdoors tomorrow but my shoes would dry overnight if I ran in the rain - so I did a treadmill run that was probably much too fast for the jet-lag, but got it done.  

AM - slower 5 miles in central London - from the City westward past St. Paul's and over the Millenial footbridge then up the Thames path to the Westminster bridge before looping back.  Probably ran too hard yesterday. 

AM - Quick trip back from the UK, ran with Dan and Rosie on the trail this morning.  Temps in the mid 20's with windchills in the single digits.  Not too bad to run on the trail today.   Heading out this evening for a long weekend with Sam and Riley in Boston. 

AM - in a town on the outskirts of Boston - called Stow, where my daughter and son in law reside.   We are spending the long weekend here - as she is midway through her first pregnancy and Tracy wanted to get some maternity clothing and furniture for the nursery for them.  Weather was quite cold and windy.  Temps were in the mid teens and the winds in places easily were in the low single digits.   I ventured out with a plan of a route that was suggested, but its all winding country roads and I probably missed a turn and ended up running a fair bit more than originally planned.  Fortunately, I ran with my phone and the gps got me back to their place after a nearly 8.5 mile run.  Great scenery and for the most part, good run. 

AM - just under 4 miles from Riley's house with her dog Molly in a light snow.  Roads were slightly slippery but I figured we'd be fine once we got to the trail at Delaney Pond.  Took a hard backward fall on some snow covered ice and hit my head.  Felt like a hard tackle in football.  Gonna be sore for a few days.
