No running today.  I was tired early - and had planned to run later in the day - but the weather got a bit ugly - and I did not feel like a treadmill run.  Decided to take a day off.

PM - 5.25 miles at lunchtime around the neighborhoods near my office in Sandy Springs. Had to turn around on one street which was blocked by a fallen tree and there was a police car stationed in front of it.  Lots of debris and downed trees and branches - but nothing too major to report.

AM - easy run with Finn before work - just under 3 miles.  Foot is achy.

PM - lunchtime - a little over 3 miles - quick after a 1 mile warm up.   Turned my ankle/foot on some Irma debris on the sidewalk - probably a pine cone (grrr).  Same foot that was achy this morning.

PM - I ran well today.  Start off planning to run easy if the foot hurt or if I did not feel great - but it all worked out and I ran the last 5 of the 7 total miles at a tempo pace on a hilly course.  Good effort.
