AM - 4 miles in the park in Florence. My cold progressively worsened overnight and so the effort was reflective of that. Wedding rehearsal today - dinner tonight - wedding tomorrow.

AM - just a 5k this morning - felt really heavy and slow - which I had to keep reminding myself was probably from this head cold and the travel. Did not really feel like going very far this morning since the day will be long with Riley's wedding this afternoon into the late evening.

AM - 4 miles in the same park in Florence that I have been running in the last several days. Felt faster and stronger for some unknown reason this morning. Daughter #2 is now a married young woman - the ceremony and venue were really very nice - a magical setting in the rolling hills of Tuscany outside of Florence. Heading home this morning.

AM - just under 5.25 miles with Dan and Finn at Milton HS. My flight and travel from the airport got me in at aroudn 10 pm last night. I slept ok, but not great. Finn was so ready for me to take him on a run - that he had me out of bed before 5:30. Decent run, and my cold seems less severe today. Good catching up with Dan.

AM - 10.5 miles with Greg and Finn on the Forsyth trail. Greg always runs at a faster pace - and so today was no exception. Last 6 miles were 7:45 or better.
