AM - a little short of 5.5 miles with Dan and the dogs.  Dan's dog, Rosie, was not in the mood for running this morning - stopped multiple times just to sniff and then dawdled even when she resumed, at a really slow pace.   But sometimes you need an easy day, so it was relaxing.

AM - 6 miles with Finn; we ran about 3 miles or so with Dan and his dog, but she has been far more interested in sniffing and walking lately, and Dan has had some knee discomfort, so he planned to only run part of the way with us.

AM - 8 miles with the guys on the trails along the horse farms - beautiful morning in the mid 50's.  Ran a quick last mile.
