AM - 7.25 miles - decent to fast pace for me these days - most of the miles were at or below 8 mins after mile 1.   Beautiful morning before church and mother's day events.

AM - 4.5 miles with Dan and the dogs from his place, but he had an early meeting - which meant we ran a little shorter than normal - so I did a couple more miles when I got back home on the treadmill.
