AM - 4.50 miles on the trail with Dan and the dogs.  Slow going for a bit and had a big tree branch that had partially fallen but was still connected to a tree on the trail, fall on me when I passed underneath it to keep Finn's leash from becoming tangled in it.  Banged up my fingers and hand a little bit, but no real harm done.

AM - 4.5 miles with Dan and the dogs on the WC golf course.  Have a slight cold and have been a bit achy the last day or so.  It was rainy but not too cold out - slow pace today.

AM - 4.5 miles with Dan and Finn from Milton HS in a light rain.   Roads were quite wet with rains all through the night so we chose a route that did not include dirt roads or trails.  Decently paced run on this one, which is relatively flat.

AM - 3.75 miles or so with Dan and Finn on the Milton Trail.  My head cold was worse today and so we went a little bit slower and shorter.  Much colder today in the upper 30's

AM - 5.25 miles with Dan and Finn from Dan's house - even colder today - and my URI is showing no signs of leaving.  Good run though.

AM - nice run with Delaney Dan and Darryl and Finn. We ran easier to allow Delaney to feel comfortable and enjoyed a pleasant morning.
