AM - a little over 4 miles very slowly with Finn in a light rain.  Reasonably fatigued - no pain or discomfort, but feeling the load from the last week of training.

AM - in Philadelphia for business - did an early morning run from the Old City section of town out to the Schulkill River trail  - picked it up to tempo pace after the 3 mile split and then slowed to recovery effort at just before 7 miles.  Good effort. Got have dinner last night with my youngest who lives here.   So that was a nice bonus
