AM - 6.75 miles with Finn in a light and steady rain.  Went to breakfast at Maple Street Biscuits with my children and then we drove up to the North Georgia mountains for a hike on Mount Yonah.  Rain was heavy at times but not enough to deter us.  Cookout this evening.

PM - 7 miles easy on the treadmill.  This week I have been intentionally running at a good bit slower pace than what I normally run - to solve for the string of "bad" runs I have been having for a while.  Seems to have been effective - as I have felt much better and enjoyed the runs much more even if they are slowly paced.
