PM - 7 miles on the treadmill- lots of rain outside- did not feel like taking the dog out and having to clean him up two days in a row.

AM - 5 miles with Finn before starting my workday.  Still had some rain even this morning - hopefully that's the end of it for a few days.

AM - 5 miles with Finn - partly on the golf course.   Saw Dan on a walk with Rosie, he's still struggling with injuries that are keeping him from running.   We chatted for a bit - hopefully he will be back at it soon.

AM - 4 miles early with Finn - short on time with an early start to meetings.  Temps back down to seasonal - 48 degrees this morning - felt nice.

AM - a little over 6 miles with Finn before starting my workday.   Sunrise did not happen until well after we finished.  I think when it is cool, I prefer seeing sunshine in the morning even if it is just early sunrise versus complete darkness (which I do not mind in the summer when it is really warm).

AM - 4.5 miles with Dan and our dogs - he's doing a walk/run thing to ease back into running from an injury.  Good to catch up.    Did 2500 meters on the indoor rower afterwards.

PM - went out with Finn late afternoon and did an unplanned tempo effort - just about exactly 10k.  Temps were cool and dry and Finn was feeling fast.
