AM - awoke a little late - and left foot was feeling early signs of Plantar Fascitis - so I just ran a couple of easy miles in the Vibrams on the treadmill, following by some extended stretching, rolling etc.

 

PM - a little under 6 miles outdoors at lunchtime.  Pretty solid effort - felt ok.

AM - 10 miles with Finn - no watch - just an easy pace - exploring some new neighborhoods.  It had been raining much of the morning and the dirt roads left Finn a muddy mess and very much in need of a bath when we got home.
