AM - 3.5 miles on the treadmill - probably in need of a day off - so this was the next best thing; controlled climate and flat running.

AM - 5.25 miles solo today on the Nix route adding a branch of the Grove. Not very speedy but a decent run nonetheless.

AM - 5 miles with Darryl from Summit Hill. Normally this would have been a long run day, but Darryl did a half marathon race last week and was still in recovery mode, and no one else was here to run; plus I was out late at a concert last night and so when he pulled the plug at 5, I decided to call it a day as well.
